Gardening - and in this I think of my good friend 
chrismukkah
*laughs... I get surprises in my yard all the time. From the prize butternut squash that grew all on its own (I did not plant it) and subsequently was chewed up my our dog Maui when he apparently thought it was trying to run away (I was not happy), to the summer squash in my garden that I also DID NOT plant, to Swiss Chard also not planted - at least I think that's what it was - and whose leaves had a taste between cabbage and lettuce. I will also add here a note on my infamous dog poop tomato plants. (The dogs like eating tomatoes.)
Now get out there and grow something! You will feel better for doing so.

Unless Monsanto sells only hybridized seeds. So you have to buy them every season...
And hydroponics are very hard, you have to do ALL the things natural dirt does, which is impossible as we don't know everything dirt does. Agie degrees are no joke, there lots of science and engineering to modern farming!

Oh, this I know - and I also heard about the awful GMO plan Monsanto had. They literally could control the world just through food supply requirements, which they would control. I was having a terrible time with the squash as they were rotting on the vine just after flowering. That's supposed to be a lack of calcium. I've had this problem before, and nothing I did seemed to help. If I could get one squash per plant I was doing good. Then there was the spaghetti squash, which climbed into the hedge and produced the most magnificent squash. Go figure.

I find it funny that I recently came up with the character pangolin, who loves gardening very much. I mean, I just couldn't get past this story, haha.
As someone who grows vegetables, the amount of land is not the only factor. Soil fertility / daily temperature fluctuations / precipitation / parasites and duration of summer and a lot more.. I love it, but frankly, lately, if your land and climate are harsh, it's not always profitable. You spend a lot of time when you could have spent it earning money to buy. So it saves your skin if unemployment. Just thinking out loud, I'm sure our experience may be radically different. My conditions are very depressing.
I liked it! Poop tomatoes? *Laughing under the table*.
"My famous poop tomatoes" - omg. Why.

I'm in Florida so watering is the only regular requirement if it hasn't rained. The sun is so hot it just dries things out and quickly. I have a potted sunflower that lets me know as its leaves droop severely if it's thirsty.
The dog poop tomatoes I always laugh about. I was mowing the lawn one day, looked down, and there they were. I put cages on them and left them alone. They gave me all sorts of tomatoes. I believe they were plumb tomatoes. I have to keep an eye on Maui, because he'll just help himself.

I make Pizza dough from scratch on occasion. The trick is to use '00' flour, though I've found that using winter wheat flour works just as well. Of course you can also do two ingredient pizza dough, just uses plain greek yogurt and self-rising flour, if you like the taste of Greek yogurt that is.
And sorry if this was unnessary information, I just had to pass it on for some reason.
