Even your overview, brief though it might have been, has been immensely educational and I can see we've some work to do in order to best cultivate this garden as a long-term resource to the population as a whole. I'll prepare and forward you a current list of our available crops, as well as a diagram of how we've distributed them throughout the garden at this time; perhaps after you've had a chance to review it, we might meet for lunch and a tour of the field, to better illuminate where we should begin and how to go about it when we do.
I'll admit to boasting some skills in the kitchen, particularly when it comes to recreating particular dishes that my guests are fond of. If there's something you'd particularly like to eat, please let me know and I'll see what I can do for you.
I'll be happy to look over everything you send me and make sure I have a thorough understanding of matters before I come to take a look in person.
I also thought I'd mention that I was invited to take a look at what they thought might be a somewhat-overgrown wheat field in Flavo that I think could be repaired and brought back into use, but it did get me thinking: given the magical and even fairy-tale nature of some of what I've experienced here (and that you've no doubt experienced as well), do you think it would be worthwhile to experiment with the idea of color having some influence on how well certain plants might grow?
Perhaps wheat is in Flavo because of it's color? Perhaps strawberries would grow best in Ruga, blueberries in Bluo. Obviously, we'd still want to take into account the basis of soil preservation and modern farming techniques, but it doesn't do to keep one's mind closed in cases like this.
A topic to address as we walk, perhaps.
As for your skill in the kitchen, I've always believed that the best meal comes from a good cooks inspiration, what materials they have on hand and what dishes they enjoy making. Suffice to say, my only requests are that you try and impress me and that you let me return the favor at a later date.
