Quite true, ghost. I got paid as an Instructor to teach writing workshops, and I had a work-study position in the library. My loans/grant also more than covered rent, food, books, and transportation. Other colleagues worked as research assistants, foreign language teachers, or had jobs in the computer lab.

I also scored myself a job at the local farmers' market for a few hours a week-- all the OG produce I could eat. That was nice....

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. In general, mashed potatoes are the kings of vegetables. But expensive organic vegetables can be traded with other market merchants for things like:

Clam sauce for pasta
Fresh morel and sh*ttake mushrooms
Thai coconuts (creamy in the middle)

5 years later and I still miss that clam sauce....
