I have dirt under my fingernails, and no matter what I do it doesn't seem like it wants to come out anytime soon.Today I went back to Silwanetshe Primary School's food garden, this time with Phumlani, and we harvested spinach, beets, and lots of carrots for the caregivers of OVCs at that school. In the end, we put fresh vegetables at the dinner table for 11 families tonight, and they were so happy! And I was covered in mud. I tried some of the carrots and they were delicious.

I like gardening.
Do you know why I like gardening? Because you don't have to speak Zulu to water plants. Anyone can water the carrots or the beets-- they don't know the difference. They don't even care. I finally found something that I am good at! :)
