    I'll start it off, and it's why I thought of the subject. Today I pressure washed my rock garden. Yep, for real... I live in Seattle, and all of the rocks had either moss or algae growing on them. They were all a dark green, and didn't look that nice. Don't get me wrong, I love moss and dark...

    What’s your favorite vegetable to plant?

    I’ll start things off and I suspect this will be a lot of people’s answer. I like to plant tomatoes.
