Don’t garden on an empty stomach
They say that you shouldn't go shopping on an empty stomach. Otherwise because of your yawning appetite, you're likely to pick up a bunch of stuff that you don't really need or even like, such as pickled frog's tongues or calves' eyeballs.
Hard to find a casserole recipe for those two ingredients.
In the same way, a person should not look at seed catalogs this time of year. Many of us have had enough of winter - snow collapsing our roofs; ice freezing our pipes, sidewalks and streets; bad weather causing us to be so homebound that Facebook is our only social life.
And yet, this is the time of year when seed catalogs are delivered to our mailboxes, promising to transport us to a Shangri-la in the coming months/Kathy Hedberg, Lewiston Tribune. More here.
Question: Are you beginning to get the gardener's itch?
