Re: my first


Dear Phillippa,
Yes for many years now I have filled my winter nights with mystery 
novels, books about cats, and books all about gardening, gardening, and 
gardening. However most of the books referred to gardening in 
Canada...the climate, the soil and even some of veggies are different 
here....for instance...what is okra? hehehe  I am kidding don't like it 
boiled but quite nice in casseroles and fried with hominy grits....don't 
ask me what those are, I am new here...hehehe
ttyl
