Do you have a vegetable garden? Can you grow vegetables? Do you have patience and good soil? My garden is not suitable for growing vegetables for cooking (nor roses). It is full of stones. Therefore, I buy my vegetables in the market or in a supermarket. Vegetables from a supermarket are wrapped in plastic, unfortunately. But I can buy things I can't grow myself, cucumbers and peppers, for example. Do you like courgettes? This one is a present. Is it really a courgette? It is as big as a marrow – but the skin is not so hard. Actually, it's as big as my cat!
