The Garden
Eating the Garden is a food blog, a gardening blog, and an ideas blog. Blog blog blog. That’s pretty fun to say. The garden is located in San Diego at my lovely little one-bedroom cottage, and is continually expanding to take over the entire landscape – the lawn is next!
Writer, Cook, and Gardener
Carrie’s interests include browsing through cookbooks and magazines for new treats, embroidering lewd designs on tea towels, trampoline, buying ingredients she can’t pronounce, surfing, yoga, dancing with her boyfriend with or without music, the drive-in, massage, community activism, Jeopardy, baths, and learning a little about a lot.
Great blog you have here!
Thanks much, Gavin! Glad you like it.
Hi,
I’m a reporter with The Associated Press, writing about edible front-yard gardening and I’d like to speak with you about your garden. Please email me if you’re interested.
Best,

Hi Carrie! Great looking site. I’ve just started blogging myself this spring about eating food I grow myself on an urban farm near my house here on the east coast. I’ve bookmarked your site and will check back regularly.
ps – Ellen, if you read these comments again, feel free to see if there’s any material you can get for your article from my blog. Don’t mean to piggyback on Carrie’s glory here, but our urban farm in Philadelphia can use all the media exposure it can get. Thanks!!! 🙂
Hey old friend,
I love that you are into this. I just made a raised bed in my backyard of a duplex I share with two people. It is sprouting heirlooms and I am really glad so I don’t have to buy at the store. Suger snap peas are my favorite though. I am learning a lot through a friend I worked in a ministry with (capperaum friendship) and her dad is a plant breeder so she has a big garden with zuccini, even artichokes. I get to house sit soon, woo-hoo. It will be a nice break from close quarters here. It sounds like you cottage is so lovely, and an apricot tree to boost! Say hi to your peeps for me if you want. Any friend of Carrie’s is a friend of mine.
I love the idea here and hope you get recognized…

Nice work Creamerie!
What do you know about vegetable gardening in the desert?
I might need some help!

hey, carrie……
those cookies, from the 4th of july!!! like i said, those are the best cookies i ever had. when i saw the heath bars go in, i was not so sure…… i love heath bars, don’t get me wrong. but, after i took that first bite….. hey, i’m converted! i have a confession: i 8 8!
i drove home that evening, but was unable to do so until i devoured the last one! miraculously, while it had been cooking, an image had bubbled to its surface: the pope and the virgin of guadalupe, obviously doing something nasty under her shround! I know i could have sold it on ebay for a pretty penny, but i ate it anyway!
thanks for cooking. and hope to see you soon. tom.
Your a girl after my own heart. Keep doing what you love!
