Not to mention the dozens of lilacs, deciduous azaleas, tree peonies and delicious vegetable garden. And I was able to serve FRESH greens that I bought that morning at the Second Annual Winter Farmers Market in Greenfield. Amazing amount of producing including fresh greens and an equally amazing number of hungry shoppers. We are hoping for more than a single annual market.Commonweederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10913336590036045901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-11705576548910005912009-02-09T09:56:00.000+00:002009-02-09T09:56:00.000+00:00Hi Alice - thanks for stopping by :) There's still...Hi Alice - thanks for stopping by :) There's still time to play if you'd like to.VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732971362066784175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-61286878794147109112009-02-09T01:26:00.000+00:002009-02-09T01:26:00.000+00:00Well, I am saddened to have come upon the 'dinner ...Well, I am saddened to have come upon the 'dinner party' after the fact.

You say I can invite anyone, living or dead? That does throw the field open, doesn't it. <BR/><BR/>(Reminds me of the time I had a highschool class put Thoreau on trial for corrupting youth (a la Plato, you know) and said they could call witnesses from any time in history. We had Ghandi, Martin Luther King, Jr., John Locke, and at least one of the founding fathers, I believe, take the stand. Great fun.
