I have decided this year to grow veggies… as I mentioned in an earlier post.

And I am excited to say… my 3 kinds of lettuce, cucumbers and tomato plant are THRIVING!!!

I check them each day… water them with care and even talk to them… as I feel they respond to my kind and loving words.

I am becoming a garden nerd… and happily browse veggie seed packets and herbs at garden centers… and drool over veggie gardens in magazines.

I know my biggest thrill will be when I can pick some beautiful, green leaves… plucked straight from my heads of lettuce… in my garden… splatter them with olive oil, vinegar and salt… and eat them happily… and with a sense of pride… that I grew them myself!

Ya hoo… for home grown!

Living green… Victoria
