Anyway, I have 4 qts. of watermelon rind soaking in salt water on my counter, tomorrow to become watermelon pickles. Funny because I'm currently reading The Lacuna by Barbara Kingsolver. She's a brilliant writer but I'm having a hard time getting into it. I bet I'd like this non fiction book of hers better.Karen Jones Gowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01153821980625034810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9011133488035315179.post-59645444271447607052010-09-05T11:49:28.743-07:002010-09-05T11:49:28.743-07:00Can't decide if I want to run into the kitchen...Can't decide if I want to run into the kitchen and start cooking or hop a plane to Solvang and start eating those yummy fruits!Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00031330729309997361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9011133488035315179.post-32236841237089579022010-09-05T07:50:23.919-07:002010-09-05T07:50:23.919-07:00This post made me hungry for FRESH fruits and vege...This post made me hungry for FRESH fruits and vegetables!<br /><br />Trying to figure out where a Farmer's Market is near by.....storyqueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07039684494823420722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9011133488035315179.post-23157707120796824792010-09-04T21:55:33.962-07:002010-09-04T21:55:33.962-07:00I heard Barbara Kingsolver when she was on tour fo...I heard Barbara Kingsolver when she was on tour for that book.

They will carry that knowledge into their adult lives and make a difference.<br />I try to buy my produce at the farmer's market and healthfood store, where the food is local and organic. Yes, I pay a bit more, but everything is more flavorful and I'm doing my small bit to help our struggling Earth.<br />Thanks for this post, Sherrie.Tricia J.
