This book is awesome (especially for the newbies like me) and shows you how (and when) to plant all kinds of edibles without dealing with a huge garden plot. <BR/><BR/>I definitely recommend it! <BR/>:) Becky<BR/>http://www.stinkylemsky.typepad.com/<BR/><BR/>p.s. thanks for the happy birthday!!Beckyhttp://www.stinkylemsky.typepad.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24440381.post-41890261781898344622008-07-02T13:42:00.000-05:002008-07-02T13:42:00.000-05:00I think the Slow Food movement is cool too, definitely along the same lines. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slow_Food<BR/>There was a study abroad trip you could do through my program in school based on slow food where you basically lived in a big house in Italy, grew and cooked all your own food, and the whole point was to focus your daily lives around eating..I could do that. I just suck at growing things in real life.shannonhttp://shannonmillercreative.com/blognoreply@blogger.com
