GARLIC HARVEST!

So I finally got around to dealing with the garlic I harvested a few weeks ago. It has been drying in the shed. I cleaned it and braided the soft neck Inchelium garlic.





About half of it did a strange thing and developed cloves a few inches up the neck. I don't think that should happen cuz it made the neck hard up to those cloves making it not really good to braid but I hung it together anyway. You can see the weird braid on the left.



This is the hard neck Belarus garlic that I an not sure how to store so I left the stiff necks on them and arranged them upside down in a vase.

Grandpa and The Agave 1964

I love this picture of my grandfather posing with an Agave.... I think. He looks like a spaceman who has just landed and is proudly standing with some strange earth flora.

Wow! More Sheila please. The History of Love? Or is it the Love of History?

OK, everything about this video gives me a total boner! From the swirling psychedelic entrails behind her to the right sided peek-a-boo shrubbery to sheila's knee high boots over fitted pants to her white piped wide lapels. Sheila got it going on and the song isn't bad either! Leave it to the french for visual feasts.

Sheila Sunday

How come I have never heard of this french Sheila before? She is all over Youtube. Che PoP!-U-Lair!
