I love fresh veggies and eat plenty of them all the time. That's partly because I love to garden and grow a lot of my own food. The stuff that comes fresh out of my organic garden has a flavor and texture you just can't buy in any store. This time of year is a little sad because the growing season is winding down but I actually just came in from harvesting some swiss chard, kale, red cabbage, tomatoes, carrots, red peppers and three types of lettuce which will all go into tonight's dinner along with some grass feed natural beef from a farm two miles up the road. Soon the first hard frost will hit us but the brussel spouts and kale just get better tasting after a frost. One reason for harvesting so much stuff tonight is indeed because the frost is coming.
Yeah, kale from the store does taste lousy. From my garden, the younger leaves are flavorful enough and tender enough to use in salad.
That looks tasty enough to set up the cross hairs on and wait for something to eat to wander over.
