homegrown

Last night, we had some friends over for dinner. We grilled pre-marinated Korean BBQ from our favorite Hankook Korean supermarket, and added banchan, plus several homegrown items: pickled cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, sliced apples with plum powder, and key lime pie. (Okay, only a fourth of the limes were homegrown; our lime tree isn't that prolific yet.) I'm sure it's partly (mostly?) psychological, but for whatever reason, eating stuff that grew in your backyard always seems to taste better.
