Homesteading seems to be pretty popular around this site, and makes me wonder if I'm missing out! Personally, I hate shopping, and I always seem to pick the wrong fruits and vegetables, no matter how often someone tries to show me how to pick the perfect avocado. I'm even worse when it comes to taking care of plants. It's like as soon as they're put in my presence, they immediately commit suicide. I would be a terrible homesteader.
Every homestead also needs its guardian in the rockingchair on the porch. Homesteads do come with bookcases, I've discovered. The trick of course is to go to the land of milk and honey (Hungarian Forests?) where the plums and peaches and avocados fall into your lap while you lie dozing. (Wear helmet.)
