The Edible Garden

[Ether St. Vying]

I've just uploaded some images from July and June.
http://www3.sympatico.ca/great/tempee.html

The cherries were amazing ... plump, juicy, sweet, crunchy and
plentiful. Everything you could hope for in a cherry ... and we only put
the tree in this April! Alert the Pope, it's a miracle!

Now we've got a bumper crop of raspberries and black currants coming in.
We pulled 100 heads of garlic ... which is odd considering I only
planted about 35. A garlic farmer's daughter once told me that if you
leave any bit of a garlic clove in the ground, it'll grow into a whole
new plant. We've got more than enough for ourselves for a year and for
the fall planting, and plenty left to give to friends and family ... and
for making roasted garlic butter, so versatile and tasty.

The stuff growing in the antique wheechair is Marrow Squash.

More food crops to follow as the season heats up.

Thanks! They were the last two of this year's crop. I had to celebrate them
somehow before I devoured them. :-)

This type sure seems to do well here. They were bred at the ag station in
the Niagara Peninsula.

I'm on a Power Mac G3 that I've had for 4 years. I don't download music or swap
files. If it had been posted as something that could be played on Real Player or
Quicktime, it would have worked. So sue me for being different.

More's the pity. That's what I hate about technology ... you buy it and within a
few years it's outdated, and a few years after that it's obsolete. No shop could
get parts to fix my 10 year old video camera when it broke. That's bullshit. It
forces consumers to buy more technology that's obsolete in a few years. It makes
for an awful lot of waste. There are mountains of dead technology filling up
landfills. Who really benefits?

Well flock him and the horse he rode in on.

Or parts and labor cost more than it would to buy a new one. I must have
thrown out 4 VCRs over the past ten years, and I cringe whenever I have to
put one in the trash, knowing it is going to the landfill. There should be
some sort of way to recycle these things, or at least parts of it.

And speaking of things not lasting forever...can someone explain to me how
PC manufacturers (or any manufacturer for that matter) get away with
offering only a one year warranty on new products? I am forking over a
couple of thousand dollars and you're only guaranteeing your product to last
one year? That's pretty pitiful.

Yup. I've through a number of VCRs myself, for the same reasons. They're
shabbily made, even the top of the line ones, and cost more to fix than
replace. It's disgusting.

That's why they make the big bucks.

Excuse me for casting aspersions on the "Ether St. Vying memorial
operating system". But now I'm puzzled. You see, both Real Player
AND Quicktime will play mp3 files and wav files. Quicktime is an
Apple program, yet will play both of these formats even in a Windows
environment. So ... what the heck are you doin'? :-)

Reminds of this invention I read about which grinds up all solid waste
into powder or something like that. Now where was that?? I don't
have time to look right now.

Good question, and one that I can even answer now. The preferences in Nutscrape were
set to play wav files on Soundmachine ... don't know why. That's a mystery. I
changed it to Quicktime and it works fine. Took an hour of troubleshooting. I did it
against my will, cause I would always rather be doing something else. I wish I had a
computer wrangler.

A 4-year-old G3 is a perfectly good box.

It should run the latest Quick Time, which will indeed play
a 'wav' file.

While I'm in a mini-rant, I don't play Flash.

I disabled it because it has neither a 'mute' nor a 'stop'
button.

If the TV were like that, it would long since have become a
target.

It is. But I'm saving up my loonies and twonies to buy a used G4. Almost
got enough. A saint blessed me with a new digital camera recently, and
in order to install the interface, I need a higher OS than I can upgrade
to on this computer.

Yup. It does. Long story short. 1 hour of techno tango. Set preference.
It works.

We pulled 100 heads of garlic ... which is odd considering I only
planted about 35. A garlic farmer's daughter once told me that if you
leave any bit of a garlic clove in the ground, it'll grow into a whole
new plant. We've got more than enough for ourselves for a year and for
the fall planting, and plenty left to give to friends and family ... and
for making roasted garlic butter, so versatile and tasty.
The stuff growing in the antique wheechair is Marrow Squash.
More food crops to follow as the season heats up.

We're having the Year Without Summer here in the Bay Area,

Welcome to my nightmare. Same here. But most of the plants don't mind. We've
had cool weather with lots of rain, and are up to our eyeballs in edibles.
The tomatoes are behind, but not by much. They can't help themselves, they're
programmed to respond to night/day length.

I know. It's crazy. We've had flooding in many parts of the country here,
from all the rivers swollen with rain. It's too bad we can't send it down to
California, or to BC, where forest fires are also raging. Apparently, the
culprit is a cold front that keeps sweeping down from the north. It's always
something.
