So many of my memories have been contained in food. So many more parts of other people (like my grandmother) have been given to me in food.Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14781361685657004214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1484758749686551398.post-61109374985975090042009-10-01T11:40:00.551-04:002009-10-01T11:40:00.551-04:00I absolutely love your image of the "golden m...I absolutely love your image of the "golden misfit"! And boy was it. That first photo you've posted here really does give that proud yellow carrot a platform for showing off. Thank you for sharing your neighborhood garden stories with us.

You have such a way with children, and your influence will last much beyond your encounters with them. Beautiful pictures, and great descriptions! I miss fireflies.

You have a way with labels, or titles, yet your writing defies such things. Always fresh, fun, tasty, interesting.

Your stories are so precious; they make me wish I still lived in New York. I see so many farms and gardens in my new home in PA, but there is nothing as magical as a thriving urban garden- probably because it's so unexpected.
