What a funny criticism. Knitting and quilting– if something’s not turning out right, we just take it apart and redo it. Failure isn’t a word to use with either, unless a person gives up (and who wants to waste the yarn or fabric?)
Gardens are learning experiences– bad seeds, bad weather, new insects, even when a person is experienced, there’s always something new to learn. It’s a darn shame about the peas, though. And an even bigger one that my HOA won’t let me have a garden, so I’m using containers until I retire and move.
Still– what a funny and judgmental way to see the world, in terms of only success or failure. There’s so much more to us all than that.
