Only Two Years

I decided to look at my blog today and I discovered that it has been a bit over two years since my last post. It is hard to come up with an excuse for that...um, I've been busy?

This is more of an exercise to see if I remember HOW to work this crazy thing.

Step one: I signed in! check

Step two: say something

I will leave that to a poem I discovered today.

Vegetables
by Eleanor Farjeon (1881-1965)

The country vegetables scorn
To lie about in shops,
They stand upright as they were born
In neatly-patterned crops;

And when you want your dinner you
Don't buy it from a shelf,
You find a lettuce fresh with dew
And pull it for yourself;

You pick an apronful of peas
And shell them on the spot.
You cut a cabbage, if you please,
To pop into the pot.

The folk who their potatoes buy
From sacks before they sup,
Miss half of the potato's joy,
And that's to dig it up.

Step three: post a picture

Mission accomplished!

Now to see if anyone sees this.
