I dont grow much . Little yellow tomatoes, cherry, tomatoes, cucumbers and maybe a random pepper plant. I give away more than I keep.

8 years could be forever. I hope you are younger than me.

Next to home grown, store bought 'mates taste like paper mache.
My g/f won't eat store bought 'maters, but she loves any of the ones I grow. And her favorite sandwich has become our BLT.

Cherry tomatoes are my favorite snack in the summer. Also grow mini cucumbers. Like a cold glass of water on a summer day.

Weather is messed up these days...
You have it right on the weather part. Around here, possibly the best winter ever. Snow fell 3 times, less than 3" total. Not terribly cold. We never get frost after April 15 so I like to be ready around then.
