*Linette looks around, notices ?, thinks of something*
"?, while waiting for pizza to be made, would you likes to look at the garden that Zoran and I started? looks so nice, nuu worries on walking, I'll carry you around, what you say?"
*I lets them know* "pizza will be ready in almost 40 minutes"

( had a long night so might be on bit shorter today ^^ )

[Firox]

*carefully go outside the den and Fi, Rose, and Zai follow along happily, not main entrance, but the side entrance near the door - outside is a nice big garden, and a small green house*

Spoiler for main garden:

"all the fresh veggies and fruits are grown here in the garden, all fresh and ready to eat from the garden*


*she gets low enough so ? can see the fresh spinach growing, and even teaches the young ones on how to see how spinach is ready or not*
"see down at the roots, not yet spinach eating color?"
*three look carefully*
"is still too light, it means not ready to eat yet"

*then she walks around the garden showing ? and the three young ones where the rest of the veggies such as peppers, potato, asparagus, onion, garlic, and even tomato too*

Spoiler for greenhouse:

*then walks near the greenhouse*
"inside is where all spices grow, including basil, lemongrass, avocados, jalapenos, and oregano
it feels so different, we have to keep some spices at certain temperatures and conditions"

*a bit cloudy to see fully inside, can feel the slight damp and heat*

Spoiler for berry patch:

*going near the front, couple of patches and trees* "over there is Sylvee and !'s den, those are apple trees, and lots of berry patches too"

*Linette goes very close to the strawberry patch, where ? can just reach over and grab a pawful of them*

*walks to the last part, just behind Sylvee/!'s den* "this last patch is Joseph's favorite part, a lemon tree and an orange tree next to it, so lots to pick from, everyone can come into the garden and pick from everything. Zoran, Vay, Firox, and myself help out when we can"


*Fi* "?, this how we picks fruit.
First we wash paws to remove dirt and soil
then we picks up our baskets and we wash them too, the little holes here to remove the extra water
then we washes the fruit to remove same
then we carefuly picks the fruit, leaving the root so more fruit can grow
we washes the fruit again in the bowl"

*all show ? how*

*by accident ? picks up a green looking strawberry*
"has a taste"
*before Fi can pass it, Linette catches it first*
"wait a minute, its too green, so it will be too sour, green strawberry aren't ready to eat yet"
*Fi tilts head* 
*Linette* "here, see how this patch over here is more red, these are ready to eat, green strawberries haven't ripened yet, so it will taste sour"




*after the tour, we head back inside - almost 50 min tour - pizzas are ready to eat*

[?]

* tries to eat the green strawberry then drops it * bleh 

[Firox]

*Linette laughs* "here, have a good one"
*picks up a small basket with fresh strawberries*


*as Grace and myself cut pizza into slices*
*Fi, Zai, and Rose jump onto a slice to start eating*



*Sherrie gives Sylvee thanks for fun time, and gives ! a nice caring hug before returning - does bring them a home made pizza before saying bye once more*

[?]

* happily noms the good one while watching pizza get slice *



* sylvee and ! both wave as Sherrie leaves *

[Firox]

*to be silly - on way back the second time, an apple falls from the tree, hits Sherrie on her back, giving her suprised eep, turning to look*


*also the 'five' that left to mountains are returning and saw the apple falling, all five come back inside*


*inside the den, all five -Arval, Jyo, Firox, Zoran, and Joseph- greet ?, the five young, Grace, and myself*



*they help make more pizza - as Jyo playfully holds ? just off the ground as it noms pizza slice in front of view* "whats matter, not hungry?"   
*sticks tongue out holding slice out of reach*
