Food, shelter, clothing, and health care are the most important topics to be covered after all. It is not surprising that this topic garnishes so much attention.

I'm so glad you were invited. I feel like you are my representative to Washington. There are many things I'm curious about. Of course, I'd like to know what did well. But what were the biggest challenges? Soil conditions? Pests? Did they stay organic? Next, what does the summer garden look like -- what have they chosen to include? Who starts their seeds for them? Are they putting anything ino the ground now? What is being planned for a winter garden -- brussels sprouts?

What fun. Have a great time. Can't wait to hear.

Wow, Kathryn. That's a tall order. My guess is, I will be behind a rope line with a gaggle of reporters and photographers, shouting questions that maybe she answers but maybe she doesn't even hear! But I will do my best. Garden Variety it counting on me!

Well, I am very excited for you. Enjoy the day at the White House garden. I know Michelle Obama will be a very gracious hostess.

I think its silly that Mr Drudge would think that lettuce wouldn't grow that fast. My leaf lettuce planted in April from seed is that big, and my romaine lettuce I planted from transplants is already harvested. He should do a little investigation and look into harvest times for veggies before he jumps to conclusions.

I think it's great that veggie gardening is being featured on such a level.
