Luffa Sponges


 My neighbour had given me these Luffa gourds from his garden.  They are delicious stir fried but Martha at Seaside Simplicity mentioned that they are also used as sponges, then I thought, of course I have seen those luffa sponges.  Here is a neat video showing how the sponges are made.
