It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
*snarl*
I deleted my long rantypants post. To sum up, not happy today. My problems are petty, which makes me even madder that I'm so worked up about something that doesn't matter.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Strawberries have been obtained. Also, tacos, but those weren’t from the Farmers’ Market.

Because books.
I suggest not combining the two, Tom.

Thrive to spite them
I have frozen strawberries but no fresh yet. The frozen came from my new temp job. The guy I'm working for had to go get a signature from someone and came back with 3 quart bags of frozen berries. Life in the small town.

We had California strawberries available all winter, although at high prices. I never figured out where they were from, but I'm guessing from greenhouses in Watsonville.
The downside of that, of course, is that it makes the arrival of the legit strawberries rather less exciting.
That said, I'm still buying lots of strawberries. AND the cherries have started to come in! Yay cherries!
ION, I am sick. Bah. I hate my sinuses.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I have also marketed. Obtained: strawberries, peaches, blueberries, tomatoes, micro greens, cucumbers, pattypan squash, bell peppers, garlic, fairy tale eggplant, and red potatoes. All that for $25. I also got milk, eggs, and mint (going to try and sprout my own, I need mint for my sweet tea).

This past year there's "local" greenhouse tomatoes available from a greenhouse operation in Maine. I'm not a raw-tomato eater, but my friends who are had nice things to say about them.

smonster, too bad you can't come harvest the mint from my garden. It's running wild. I hate it and it can't be killed.
Wonder if I listed it on Craigslist someone would come and dig it all up and take it away?
