The garden is waning so Hanging Horn decided it was time he tested the crops. He couldn't choose for himself because we have perennial flowers, strawberries, and raspberry/blueberry bushes that he'd have been more than happy to destroy. He wants you to know that it was completely frustrating to be forced to sample from outside the gate. Still, he managed to swallow his pride, along with some lettuce, basil, carrot, a bean plant, and a roma tomato before deciding that they were all equally delicious, even the bean's stalk. I guess that means it wasn't so much a "taste test" as an exercise in gluttony. Whatever it was, he really enjoyed it and now has one more thing to pester us about.
