and oh, am I drooling!
I hate just about everything else about winter except my mail box being stuffed daily with these wonderful wish books.
and oh, I am delivering lots of them.
and oh, I order pretty zinnias every year.
Giant ones.
All red.
Love them.
an oh! I need to get a few delivered to me because I want to plant my heirloom tomatoes soon!

I don’t however share my native seeds from the NC Bot garden, I will give away plants I propogate though, from their seeds.
Yeah, like this one 
Well, geeze…you asked 
do remind me to explain rhetorical to ya some day
I just filled out the stuff for the catalogs today. I think I want to try mushrooms this year.
The magic ones grow wild in the pastures around Tampa, just collect those. 
On the serious side I grow Shitake mushrooms, which apparently I can’t say on this list, on sweet gum Liquidambar styraciflua usually an easy to locate cheap/free wood. What in the world? Why can’t I say shitake? with an ake at the end?
