Vela was delighted to look around as they walked, but upon seeing the vegetable and herb garden she was even more so.  Her smile went broad as she looked to Angus.  "This is perfect, Angus!"  She spoke cheerfully.  "With this I won't need to go to the grocery for these items at all."

"And if Eleanor cans the produce for the winter and dries the herbs, this will be quite a treasure then as well."  It got expensive to get vegetables and fresh herbs out of season but properly done canning and drying is almost as good in meal preparation.
