Today was the very first time I can remember using something I have grown myself in a dish. This summer we bought a chili plant. It has lived on our balcony and in our living room. It has been a very thirsty plant. We've watched lots of flowers bloom, close and fall off, but three made it and slowly transformed and grew into chili peppers. This week the first one became fully mature and had the privilege of being cut up and used in tacos tonight! It felt good being able to utilize something I'd taken care of over time. (And the taco meat I made with the chili was really good too!)
Oh, Mr. L. One day, when you have your own private park, you can grow lots of things that you can take care of and use. One day! :)
