    I remember being a little girl, sitting at the kitchen counter, watching my mother. She would be making preparations to cook us our wonderful meal. Eager to learn, I would ask, “Mom, what can I help with?” Then I’d jump down, off my chair and listen to her instructions with excitement. She put forth a lot of hours preparing and finishing everything before family and friends arrived. The kitchen would be filled with joking, laughter and storytelling. We would listen and sing to music as we helped and waited for our Thanksgiving celebration to start.…

    As a child I was psyched up, I couldn’t wait to look at all the pumpkins and carve it as a dinosaur. I literally was obsessed with dinosaurs until the age of nine. We parked our 1997 Corolla and started to walk to all the bright orange pumpkins. Something was strange from the looks of this place. All the pumpkins had white little tags on them but they weren’t dollar signs like you would expect. They all had words on them, I was only six at the time so I couldn’t read that much. A few words I read out loud from one of the white little tags but struggled to read the whole sentence. My mom was confused too, why would all the pumpkins have stupid little quotes on them she murmured. We soon found out shortly that this was at our advantage and not a disappointment. A tall black man with dreads came out of the trailer by the pumpkin patch and walked up to us. He asked “What can I help you with folks?” My mother asked him about the pumpkins and the quotes on them. He laughed, since it’s three days before Halloween were having a little contest. I looked up at him and…

    I remember going Easter egg hunting in the park with my grandma, aunt, and my two brothers. People were screaming because they were happy. First we went to walmart to get our plastic eggs and candy and bags that was fun.Next my aunt said go play so we can set up. Lawrence said ok so we played on the tier swing.My grandma had to put the eggs on the grass. The grass was wet so the plastic eggs got wet when we put them on the grass.

    There was all this trash that piled up higher than he was. When my plants began to grow it was one of the best things that happened. I felt so much like I was at home. The plants are so perfect it made the grass look bad. The fence had to be put up so people couldn't get in because some people tried to eat other people's plants and some guy came and ripped out the plants. I had some many pumpkins and watermelon grew like weeds. I sold them half of all them. I was one of the founders of this garden as well. So a week from today is halloween so I picked up all the pumpkin I want to carve. Gardening is so relaxing to do. I love to garden It makes me feel so relaxing. Has I went to ga ad hoe the garden before the ground froze so next year I could only had to do once. I had to go and buy some pumpkin carving tools. Saw someone who had a plot as well.
