A greengrocer and the economic crisis


February is the month for pruning and you should prepare the ground for sowing even in the old literature on the subject.
Me and my cousin so we started to dig the ground, for me after 36 years of clerical work was a hard work to learn everything, meanwhile, spade, the soil is completely cleared of weeds and that the cover must also be reported so homogeneous in order to avoid depressions. There is also a special technique to withstand less fatigue but that you learn with time and experience. Usually in popular jargon it is said "you did a job as a spade" in the bad sense, to say that the work is done badly and without care, but this was refuted me by my old co-worker whose family he had a farm and we explained to everyone in an office, that the "spade" was a job well done because the land was completely regenerated. He exclaimed, again, when completed a practice "I had a job as a spade" with my total satisfaction, because at that time I was in charge of the Office.
But what surprised me was when, at the suggestion of my cousin very experienced in this area, we recovered small salad plants that frosts of winter have spared and who were between the leaves of the artichokes that had repaired a contribution.
The plants, once made homeless in the land of fresh spade, seemed then purchased from the nursery. The first large fresh salad leaves are planned around Easter.
I came to think that if the Wall Street bankers were involved in the same manner and care of a greengrocer perhaps the economic crisis was now much less severe.
