thanks Meryl, I'm so going to try this. Misplaced, they don't keep very long...

make sure you refrigerate. I think they last a week, tops. if you are making a cheese platter, they are just beautiful with cheeses.

we haven't had any grapes at the farmer's market yet smileys/frown.gif

Meryl, Thanks for the ideas. I will try the tart and the Mahi Mahi. With

scallops the price that they are here, I will have to forgo that recipe.

You're welcome, Misplaced. Let me know how they turn out.

I put them in pancakes as someone else suggested. That was good.

if necessary, maybe they will freeze well? kinda like blueberries, if you're going to cook them.
