I dug a patch of my parents' backyard in preparation for planting veggies. I love gardening, although I haven't done it much in the last few years. I can't wait to get back into it. Veggie gardening is especially rewarding. Since I got back from vacation I've felt renewed and my activist passions reawakening, and the vegetable garden is my latest project for self-improvement and earth-improvement. There is nothing like the feeling of plucking a ripe tomato off a vine that you tended to and patiently watched for weeks, and eating food that only had to travel directly from the plant to your dinner plate is infinitely better for the earth than buying from a supermarket.

I always write these entries 3 or 4 times and delete at least half of them before I post them. They're still never that interesting or well-written. I'm not sure why I bother.
