I've just learnt a new cocktail recipe, have you ever tried an English Garden? No, I haven't tried an English Garden, but I love to drink. How do you make an English Garden? Have you served it to any customers yet as a bartender? It's pretty tricky to find the ingredients sometimes. You need gin, cucumber, but also elderflower. It kind of tastes like lychee. I haven't served it to anyone yet, but we might make it a special to see what people think. What are some of your favorite tastes in a drink? I'd like to try that sometimes, as gin and lychee are both flavors I enjoy. I'm pretty basic when it comes to cocktails. I really like vodka with cranberry juice, or sometimes straight up, adding raspberries that I've grown. I really like pumpkin ales when they are in season, too. Oh yeah, many people really like the pumpkin ales when they are available. Do you ever use use some of the things from you garden to make drinks? Or mostly just to cook with?  I only use the raspberries to add to my vodka drinks. I love cooking with the mushrooms, potatoes, and carrots I grow. I love to make beef stew using all of those ingredients. How is your vegetable growing coming along?  I am just getting ready to sew the first batch of corn since we have passed frost for the season. I am going to try Nirvana corn. Have you ever heard of it before? Are you expecting a big yield of corn this season? No, I haven't heard of Nirvana.com. What's it all about? I'm not sure why it's named that, but it's a mix of yellow and white corn. It's supposed to be really sweet. It will be the first time I've tried growing it. I am planning to plant double the corn this year so I hope to get a big crop and freeze some. Do you ever freeze some of your harvest? Or just can? That sounds delicious. Whatever we can't eat or sell, I put into cans with my sister. Maybe you could send me some of that Nirvana corn when it's done? I'd be happy to send you some of my crops in return. Oh yeah! That would be great! Do you have a good amount of raspberries? I have made freezer jam with raspberries before and it is so yummy and easy to make. I should have a sizable raspberry crop closer to the summer. I'd be happy to send you a couple of bushels. I might be doing some blueberries, too, if you're interested.
