Gabrielle: That's right!

　　Todd: So, you do not eat meat!

　　Gabrielle: I don't. No meat, no fish!

　　Todd: OK, and you said that you have a garden.

　　Gabrielle: Yeah, I'm lucky to have enough room to have a vegetable garden, as well as a flower garden, so I love growing veggies.

　　Todd: Oh, nice! Can you tell us about your garden and what you grow and what you eat?

　　Gabrielle: Sure absolutely! Well, I guess in the summertime, I grow a lot of salad vegetables:

　　lettuce, green onions, tomatoes, and over the winter, whatever grows pretty much, carrots or cabbages, broccoli.

　　Todd: Wow, you grow vegetables all year round!

　　Gabrielle: I try. I try. I'm not a great gardener. Yeah, so!

　　Todd: And what things do you like to make with these vegetable?

　　Gabrielle: Ah, in the summer time I love just raw vegetables, so salads are great, and I eat them with Tofu or, yeah, vegetables are good. (OK) Yeah in winter soups. I love making soup with fresh veggies.

　　Todd: Oh, what kind of soup?

　　Gabrielle: Well, I don't follow recipes actually, so what ever veggies I have go in the pot. Yeah, tomato soup, corn soup's good.

　　Todd: Sounds good. How do you make soup?I mean what is your procedure?

　　Gabrielle: OK, well, basically I take whatever vegetables I have, chop them up and cook them, boil them lightly. I like them still crunchy and then I often add a base of some sort, a stock, a veggie stock.

　　Todd: Now that's normally a problem for vegetarians right, cause you can't use bullion, (Yeah) the beef cube or the chicken cube.

　　Gabrielle: Sure, at home actually, we have a lot of vegetarian products available so I get some organic veggie stock, or alternatively, I use some spices, some cumin or basil spice, yeah, or sometimes lentils I cook up. Yeah!

　　Todd: You're making me hungry. Sounds good. Well, thanks a lot, Gabrielle.

　　Gabrielle: No, problem, you're welcome.
