For example, strawberries in June and turnips in winter lived my childhood with the seasons. Also, we made most of our food and would never eat frozen or tinned food. Everything was fresh, so it must be better than the type of food I am taking now in the city, City people think that people in the country miss a lot of good things about modern life, but in my opinion, they miss a lot more than them.
