If you are unable to attend but would My Obsolete Gardening To many people, a garden personifies pleasure. To me it indicates work, to which I’m allergic. Digging in the dirt relaxes some people and sparks renewed energy. All it does for me is to give me an aching back, sunburns, dirty fingernails and exhaustion. | recommend getting your veggies at the supermarket — it’s cleaner, easier and gives lot of bang for your buck. Can’t you visualize them now — nice, neat packages of perky salad ingredients just waiting to be adorned with your favourite dressing? Or the tender, juicy frozen peas that can be steamed in minutes? No arduous splitting the pods for the miniscule amount of peas that must be repeated over and over again just to get enough for one serving. Praise be for the baby carrots that don’t need any scrubbing or scraping before going into the pot — and what a vibrant colour they add to my dinner plate. Now, I’m very fond of potatoes and don’t mind exerting a little energy to prepare them for my enjoy- ment. If they are nice and smooth, a touch of the brush may be all that is needed to ensure them a place of dis- tinction in my gourmet meal. If you don’t have time to cook, you can always open a can and presto, a meal ready in minutes. Do you get the impression that | might be lazy or my time is too valuable to participate in such menial tasks? Perhaps | have misled you down the “garden” path. If necessary, | will prepare the food the old- fashioned way as | enjoy eating too well. like to place an order visit the website at www.partylite.com and call Barb with your order.
