Rules of the meme: Respond and rework. Answer the questions on your own blog; replace one question that you dislike with a question of your own invention; add one more question of your own. Tag eight other un-tagged people.
I'll tag Rowena at warrior girl, henning at The Living Rockumentary, Stephen at Stevie Guide, racymind, Hecate, Serena, erg at keeping it lit, and ntodd at Dohiyi Mir.

thank you ina! hmm, i hadn't thought of growing my own edamame but it's a favorite of mine. and i never see it locally at the farmer's markets — i wonder why?
btw, did you take the gorgeous photo with this post? it would make an amazing painting!
thanks, m.heart.
yes, i did take it: we were at a friend's for supper and the kitchen got smoky. when i saw the sunlight streaming in the window of the adjacent bathroom, i asked my daughter to go in and sit down. that's why it's such a close crop--getting the toilet out of the picture!
alright. but only for you.
