My persuasive writing on why you should grow your own vegetables
I think that everyone should grow their own vegetables because it is good for the environment. Also, you don't have to keep buying from the shop all the time and they will be nice and fresh so they will be good to eat. Another reason why you should grow your own vegetables is because so you can get the vegetables you want because at the supermarket the vegetables at the shop could be sold out or they might not have the vegetable some people also like to garden and to watch plants grow for self satisfaction. Also you can do gardening as an exercise to get outside and do something for your body and to burn off fat that you ate earlier. Another reason why is some people live far from shops and supermarkets. Overall it is more efficient and practical for people to grow vegetables.
I have a garden with my parents but all the plants died and the vegetables because we forgot to water them but i normally would water them but i forget normally and when i went on holiday my dad was still at the house painting and they all died so it would of been better and i would probably eat more vegetables if we still had our plants.

2 tablespoons of edmonds standard grade flour
1 cup meadow fresh low fat milk
Salt and freshly ground black pepper Optional
½ cup freshly grated cheese
Tools
Saucepan to melt
Method
First you melt your butter or margarine in a small saucepan. Then you add the edmonds standard grade flour and stir with a wire whisk for 1 minute next you remove it from the heat and whisk in the meadow fresh milk. After that you return to the saucepan and heat and stir until the sauce thickens to about how thick you want it you then add the black pepper and salt you don't have to if you want to and add the grated cheese after. Stir until the cheese melts you can also melt the butter and other ingredients in the microwave.
