Starbucks? Never had one, don't care to. I prefer my own brewed at home as I stare out the back window into the woods.

Family & friends who don't understand? Yup on both accounts. They will ask.. why do you bother with all that gardening and then canning it... etc
They just DON'T understand.

Obsession with weather? I thought I had inherited this from my dad... guess it's more than that.
