If I lived in a fairy tale (or in that commercial where all the cat food is spiked with LSD), I would have an awesome witch garden where all the fruits and vegetables were the wrong color. This would be possible because these things actually exist.

I am right there with you. We began to make our seed wish list and I have these visions of a lush garden with some light and soothing weeding chores. I am selectively blocking the parts about fumbling with the drip irrigation and running, terrified and screaming, away from the tomato worms.
This seems like a great idea. Also, I should order some seeds and read up on forcing seedlings. It may help me feel more in the moment to plan for our container garden.
Purple carrots? What?
Ah, yes - so much *potential*!
i've been enjoying my purple carrots and crazy tye-dyed beets from our CSA... yum! -- and I can't wait to see your garden grow!
