I think I know what I want to do with the rest of my life...

Farming... yes, you read right... I think that I relaly want to have my own farm when I grow up :) Having the opportunity to visit fresh markets here in London has been my favorite part of the trip. You might think that that's a crazy, and ignorant thing to say... but it's the absolute truth. I visited Borough market this morning, as is my usual Saturday am routine, to get som fresh fruit and veg for the week. It just always amazes me though, the people you meet and the passion that they have for what they do.

Can't you just picture it, living on a huge plot of land in the countryside... with pigs and horses and cows and chickens... feeding them healthy grains and watching them grow. And playing lines of vegetables in the healthy brown dirt... weeding the gardens and picking the beautiful, and delicious things that grow. I would love it - be in absolute heaven!!! Until then, I guess that I will have to settle for my beloved NH :) no complaints, because I do love the state... but take a look at these pictures and tell me that you would not want to eat these kinds of foods, fresh from your own backyard, EVERY DAY OF YOUR LIFE!
My afternoon snack... Thank Crunch Salad (carrots, gulbar wheat, sunflower seeds, raddish, and eggplant) in a huge, freashly made wheat pita from I <3>
