the feeling of satisfaction is there all the same and the thrill of eating my own fresh-produce, the things I've nurtured and toiled to bring into existence, will still be there even when combined with a few purchased items.
May be this small journey will some day become bigger to produce everything that we want.
Oh yes, someday I hope to have a much bigger space to vege-garden in. At the moment I'm loathe to tear up my yard area...Maybe one day though.
