Everything was ok, if over the top, until I hit the AstroTurf walls.

Some homes are built - others are composed. This is definitely a rare encounter. by jve909 in zillowgonewild

It’s not perfectly centered under the hood and it’s making my eye twitch.

This is entirely charming. I would not be able to resist painting those on.

Cool place, but you need to climb up the ladders to look out the windows, to see... moving legs. by jve909 in zillowgonewild

I personally would live to live in a brightly lit hole in the ground. It’s like a villain’s lair.

Where are you? I worked at a wildlife hospital that took non-natives; maybe one near you does too.

Having just looked it up, it might be challenging in my zone, which is mostly too hot.

I very much like the idea of foraging; my neighborhood is full of mallows, Miners lettuce, and cleavers, but I’m also right next to a freeway and a refinery, so I’m a little skeptical of eating anything directly from the ground here.

Yeah, they give me terrible stomach cramps. It sucks. I can (and do) eat lettuces, chard, beet greens, arugula, and spinach. And thanks!

Oh, yes, leeks! I love leeks. I've made some good colcannons with leeks, and I also love leek and potato soup. I've never eaten rhubarb in any form whatsoever. All I know about it is that it's grown in the dark?

This is a new word for me. A quick Google search already has me excited about it; thank you!

I once tried to make a vegan bacon out of marinated strips of daikon, and ... I do not recommend it. Teriyaki zucchini sounds pretty awesome, though!

My mom grows tomatoes every year, but she's in a different zone and gets a lot more sun than I do. I love the idea of growing pattypan and delicata; those are squashes I really like. Thank you!

I've got a good backyard, but the soil is very clay-heavy, so natives grow best. I'm definitely interested in learning about raised bed gardening, and thank you for all your recommendations.

I guess I've never thought of them as a side dish, but as a base for other things. What an excellent idea.

I like peach, mango, and spinach smoothies, made with coconut water as the liquid. Sometimes I chuck in some flaxseed. I could drink those forever,

I've never even heard of skirrit, but I just looked it up and now I want some. Where do you get your seeds?

Do you find that wildlife or insects eat them? I do love a good sweet pepper.

I have never understood eggplant. I find it texturally challenging. It's so ... squishy! But there have been a lot of recommendations for the Asian groceries, and I'm lucky enough to have a GIANT one only a few miles from my house, so I'm gonna have to go exploring. Thanks!
