Berry nice. There's a lot of new vocabulary for ignorant townspeople like me like, kkakdugi (we need phonetic spelling for that one), potager, scapes, florets, pak choy (something tells me that's the same as bok choy which is a staple in Cantonese restaurants around here). Your columns are always insightful. Have you ever thought of doing a print book? Forty acres and a six legged horse?
If only I had 40 acres! It would be easier to acquire a real six-legged horse I think. Yes, pak choy, bok choy is the Asian version of tomato, tomahto.
Funny how one picture can bring back a flood of memories. The strawberry field photo took me right back to picking berries for pocket money in the seventies...and your barred rock photos took me back to the last time I had chickens. I'd raise another batch of chicks if I was planning on staying here.
Sounds like you eat really good when the garden starts producing. Those pics made me hungry.
Yes, I love this time of year for the food, among other reasons. It's not like I can't afford to buy veggies in the winter, but the store-bought stuff is disappointing. It's just not the same and it makes a big difference in flavor.
