DiaryOfAWorm: My Front Lawn


My front lawn today

Today I took a walk up the street to the Post Office mailbox. On the way there and back I noticed front lawns. Some front lawns had political signs about teachers or recalling the Governor, some had flower boxes and bushes, one up the block had a rain garden and many just had grass. Front lawns say something about the person living in them. My neighbor down the block and across the street has an award winning garden in his front lawn. My front law consists of a rain garden and a vegetable garden with many flowers and tomatoes.

What does it say about me? Probably that I have made some really good soil, care about beauty and home grown food. Tonight I made with a Middle Eastern meat dish, salad an Indian vegetable curry dish for few friends. Many of the vegetables in the curry vegetables and salad were from my garden, tomatoes, eggplant, green beans, basil, lettuce and peppers. In the middle of the table was a vase full of beautiful flowers from the gardens.

My front yards speaks of self sufficiently and sustainability. I like that and it taste and looks good.
