SEEDS... OH SEEDS!



I collect chilli seeds even thought I know I would never be able to grow all those seeds and the garden will never have space for 50 other lime trees or 100 roselle plants.

I feel guilty if I throw away seeds when I cut fruits to juice and I feel insanely bad to chew on cucumber slices without removing the seeds!

Recently I ate some super sweet strawberries and was already imaging a patch of luscious berries waiting to be picked.  Sure I sank my teeth into those strawberries daintily and tried keeping those seeds.  At the end of eating just a few berries, I was in a mess... tee was stained when I squeezed on a berry too hard and it never felt the same eating berries without able to crunch the seeds in between your teeth.  I decided it was just too much work to deal with tiny little seeds so back to saving chillies and limes and roselle and ok, cucumber seeds too or any seeds that are bigger than a strawberry's.

Is it just me or someone out there rides on the same boat? 

I've heard of AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) organisation / association and also smoking hotlines for those who are in serious need for help whether with alcohol or cigarettes.  Just wondering if there is any hotline I can call especially for people who are obsessing seeds and picking on them?  

Help Mom!!
