Forgive me for this extremely short and hastily written article but this is an emergency “mission of mercy”.

Every year, I love to plant, grow, and tend a vegetable garden. Together my husband and I faithfully plow and nurture our garden each spring. Having been married for 13 years, we had both brought a unique knowledge of gardening to the marriage, and it works out rather well for us. One of those gardens resulted in my funniest garden experience.
