And maybe if you have a good harvest, you won’t need to spend much money at the grocery store. But the reality sometimes isn’t that perfect and people don’t always have a success story to share.
1. “My corn (1) is doing great.”
2. “Would anyone like some lemon water?”
3. “I might make carrot cake with one of them, and juice with the other.”
4. “Very large harvest. Very small dog.”
