Recipe failure

I knew the recipe was a failure when one of the kids said, "Well, I am glad you liked it," when I took another leaf.  I had thought since people rave about kale chips that I could use celery leaves the same way.

I had been so proud when I figured out that the translation of bladeselleri was leaf celery, as opposed to sellerirod (or rodselleri?), which is celery root.

And they really mean it when they say leaf celery.  I didn't want the leaves to go to waste and I wasn't making soup, so I tried the roasted leaf recipe.  I am sure they will compost well.  Maybe next time I'll dry them and save them for a seasoning.
