It’s hard NOT to be in a pretty good mood at this time of year (regardless of what might be going on). There’s nothing quite like the feeling of strolling out into the yard and harvesting naturally-grown (and unbelievably flavorful) tomatoes and basil for the evening’s bruschetta bread mix, or coming across the biggest musk melon you’ve ever seen, growing on what began as a very-neglected “volunteer” plant. Or perhaps it’s just the overall sense of awe you feel as you survey the natural bounty that’s burst forth in such a short time-frame.

It reminds you of the “big picture” importance of all this kooky “worm stuff”, and of the “magic” that attracted you to it in the first place.

Utterly amazing.
