Who has a garden?

I think it's a natural progression to take a great interest in your ingredients once you become very interested in food. I can't ever seem to wake up in time or remember to go to the local farmer's market every Monday. Do any of you have gardens? If so, do those seed packets you can purchase at garden centers really work, or should I buy potted plants and herbs and then transfer them to the soil myself? Also, I heard that all it takes to grow potatoes is cutting one up that has lots of eyes and then dropping the pieces in soil, is this true? My dad's willing to give me a chunk of his precious backyard to devote to herbs, vegetables or flowers of my choice. Any suggestions for a first time gardener? I really want to grow veggies, but only things that are pretty simple to keep up with.
