So THAT'S where it comes from! I wonder how many bottles would come from that one field, Mary? Do you have a clue?
Mary MacADNski: I don't have a clue. Google would probably tell you.

Beautiful!
Mary MacADNski: The many canola fields are in bloom and they do make a pretty sight.

Fields of yellow, delightful Mary
Mary MacADNski: They are plentiful this year. The price must be good.
This is grown in the Uk now.A lot of people were against it as an "alien" crop that changed the landscape. I confess to liking the look of it.
Mary MacADNski: I think most people think it's pretty. One of the problems is that most of the canola grown now is supposedly from genetically modified seeds and lots of people are against that.

I agree with Bill, it is beautiful to see Mary.
Mary MacADNski: It is beautiful especially if it surprises you as you turn a corner.
The rape of the countryside. I wish that crop was given some other name other then rape. It sounds so vulgar with its other connotation Mary. Perhaps it has other names elsewhere.
Mary MacADNski: We call it canola, Chad.

If this is oilseed rape we get lots of it too in the UK but all the colour has gone by now
Mary MacADNski: It is just past it's peak I'd say. There sure is a lot of it around this year.
Wonderful Mary! I suppose this is rape seed.
Mary MacADNski: We call it canola now but it was called rapeseed in the past.

Yellow gold
Mary MacADNski: That's exactly what the grower is thinking.
Beautiful shade of yellow Mary.
Mary MacADNski: It is very bright. It's getting a bit of a green hue now so is beginning to lose it's yellow.

Im sure this would make a lovely lie..Great compo smile
Mary MacADNski: Thanks so much.
Ive not seen this growing Mary. Such beautiful colours. It makes the green quite dismal.
Mary MacADNski: This is true. The green is not spring fresh anymore.
i like very much this yellowtone, a nice one again Mary smile
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Zebigleb. You may be eating this in your salad next year.

This is so excellent. What a landscape.
I have a clue how many bottles. They will be many, many, many. My supermarket has a whole shelve dedicated to canola. smile
Mary MacADNski: There are a lot of canola fields in my area this year and this was from another area. I'd say the price is good.
