Wonderful post. You're right, growing your own food is a lot more satisfying than buying it. Man, now I’m hungry. Wonderful post.

When I was a kid we used to drive to East Texas to see my grandparents and would always stop on our way to get fresh peaches. Those were the good old days.

I can't hear bagpipes or a bodhran without my heart skipping a beat. And as for fresh produce, is there anything in the world better than fruits and vegetables bought in season?

I have this one big problem though. After I plant a bunch of seeds, I can't bring myself to thin them out. It just seems so wasteful, so mean. Also, I can't smush the grasshoppers like my mother-in-law taught me to do. Again, they got such cute little faces. As for Scotland. I so want to go there. One day...one day!!

Although I did grow tomatoes last year. I grew seven tomatoes, to be precise. Given I can’t grow a thing, I’m exceptionally grateful when there’s a famers’ market near me.
