Okay, so it’s not incredibly impressive, but last year I bought a bunch of herbs and proceeded to kill them. The very fact that things are growing seems to me to be a miracle. If I ever have an actual yard I now feel a sense of hope that I will be able to make food come up from out of the ground.
Things are looking good although I think it is going to rain forever which means that now that I am not over-watering my plants, mother-nature is. I have now realize though that one of the downsides of growing food is that although I have a decent amount of potential vegetables on my porch, I will not have actual food for a while. At that point I will then have too much food. Nothing, nothing, nothing. Too much. I feel as though technology should be able to offer us plants that bear fruit at a rate of say a couple per week. We could call these plants grocery plants. I really think it will catch on. I also think that technology should be able to offer us teleporting. If you think about it, with teleporting, we could pop off to India, get some mangoes, and then pop back. Teeny-tiny global footprint there, right? Because everywhere would be local.
I will post some pics of my less dead plants and I’m going to make some no-knead bread tomorrow.
