For all of you who are "farmers" or those who have green thumbs- I envy your talent!!
Stu and I have decided we have "brown" thumbs. The only things that grow well in our yard are the "hardy" or "difficult to kill" variety of plants.
Here is an illustration. I do have to admit the carrots are weird because I didn't thin them when I should have, BUT our carrots look like this, and the pears on our tree are about 4 inches long, look like this and are virtually inedible.
Hmmmmmmm...guess we'll stick to gladiolas, irises, the forest plants that grow naturally here, and maybe roses, if I'm diligent!!!!

No worries, I'm sure I'll join your ranks as soon as I have a garden area to plant! I kill all things that live minus children and plants that require no sun and no water. :)
You know you get points for trying, right. Besides half of what is planted is usually to fill the space or just the joy of growing something. I know we never ate all the cabbage dad always included in the garden or the hot peppers. :) So, A for the effort.
Oh, that's a pear? I thought it was an oddly shaped potatoe.
