	 If you can't find decent okra in your area, try growing it.  I have
managed to grow it here in Rochester, NY, although the climate isn't
ideal for it.  It is worth growing even if you hate okra  - the flowers
are very pretty and resemble a hibiscus flower (I forget, okra may be
part of the same family).  I suspect you could even grow it in a container
if you don't have space for a garden; just be sure to use a fairly large
pot and put it in full sun.
