Re: REGULARLY gardening
My parents were avid gardeners and it brings back such wonderful childhood memories. Had a little vegetable garden with tomatoes, bell peppers, carrots, eggplants, mint. Fruits were plum, peach, nectarine, and orange trees. Lots of roses, lilies, irises, pansies, marigolds, morning glory, gladiolus...there were a lot and i can't even remember some of the names now.
It's great because you can get some exercise, its stress-free, and i think generally being around nature makes most people happy.
Gardening is great for kids too. It gets them involved, its fun and teaches them about taking care of things. In the end you can get tasty homegrown fruits and vegetables :)
