News: White House to Get Veggie Garden

3-19-2009veggies.jpgThere's been a lot of talk about what the Obamas should and shouldn't do with the White House. They should get a green swing set ...and maybe even a green dog house.

They shouldn't keep the lawn. Instead, they should replace it with an edible garden.

 
 

We doubt the lawn is getting pulled up anytime soon; however, we're starting to think that the veggie garden is on its way.

While checking out at the grocery store earlier this week, we saw that Michelle Obama is on the cover of Oprah magazine, but we didn't have a chance to read the interview. Now we wish we had. Apparently, in the article, Michelle Obama promises a White House vegetable garden.

It should be a huge garden and the produce should go to Washington's foodbanks.
