Gardening

Gardening makes me happy. I love the feel of dirt under my fingernails, the quick, satisfying jerk of pulling out weeds, and the nearly immediate gratification of rearranging a tomato plant to make it happier and healthier.

This image makes me happy:

Home grown tomatoes, pepper, and green beans

So does this one:

I just cannot get enough of how rewarding it is to be able to grow food. It tastes better. It doesn't take that much time to maintain. It lets me get my hands dirty. And I get to wear the cutest sun hat.

Do you garden? What do you plant? What is your favorite part? Least favorite?
