I wanna harvest spaghettis too !
Love Morbo!
I was completely thinking about your house when I posted that. Your front yard needs a little work, but your back yard is living art! Of course, you never did tell us the variety youâre growing in the front yard. You know, that really huge plant!
I had not considered that. A definite bonus! Keeps the riffraff at bay. (Iâm not sure before today I knew how to spell riffraff correctly.)
Thank you so much for the harvesting spaghetti commercial! That is truly a classic! There is nothing like freshly harvested spaghetti!
Yeah, them beasts move fast from displace to datplace. I believe thatâs why theyâre called displacers.
Sign me up!
No kidding! I want to too!
Two things I want to know - first, what is the pickerâs pay based on? The bunch? The piece? What about short or broken pieces? I know if you are picking cherries, if you have too many without stems at weigh in, your pay is docked. Those are called âmilkedâ cherries. They go bad much faster than a properly picked cherry with the stem intact. I personally never got docked any pay, but I was careful if slow. Lots of new pickers (mostly white kids like me) learned the hard way. The second thing I wanted to know is if the word âspaghettiâ a mass noun, but then, as I was thinking about it, I realized âspaghettiâ is the modifier here, and (the unspoken ânoodleâ) is the real noun. (I donât know shit about grammar, however, I do know that etymologically âgrammarâ is directly related to the word âglamour.â Did you know that? Here it is in a free on-line etymology dictionary. Scroll down the page until you reach the âGlamourâ heading.)
Nope, I didnât knew.
Front yard food:
Espalier apple tree (6x varieties),
Tomatos (in pots),
Dinosaur Kale (edge row, will be cropped, dried, powdered and pilled when the 1st snow hits.),
Sugar Maple (gonna need a while but I figure it should be able to be tapped in my lifetime!)
Everything else is ornamental for the birds, bees & insects like the Honeysuckle, Butterfly Bush, Brugmansia, Datura, Ontario Field/Meadow Wildflowers, Geraniums, Wild Grapes, Cosmos, and of course the sacred herb Mugwort.
An awesome plant all around the world! Iâve always thought the leaves vaguely resemble a mutant weed plantâs leaves. And I just learned itâs also an interesting word etymologically. Of course, pick a word, any word, and Iâd think itâs interesting! Iâm a really simple guy.
