Monticello: "It is just incredibly beautiful, and that beautiful garden that he planted that is three times the size of anything that you'd ever do.

I wonder if she stopped to think that Jefferson's garden was planted and maintained by a huge contingent of slaves inherited from his father-in-law and his wife. And it was expected to feed the hosuehold, guests, and the huge contingent of slaves all year. No PDQ or 7-Eleven at Monticello!

Yep. Michelle just takes a cadre of SS guys with her in a limo parade down the street to the Farmer’s Market for vittles, LOL!
