wanna try something weird?

I love that when I say "wanna try something weird, from the garden?" my roommates, for the most part, are game. so fun fact of the day, if you let French radishes flower, they produce these little pods that are quite satisfyingly crunchy and fresh. give it a try, some time.


I imagine they'd be pretty good atop a salad, or as part of a fresh, green broth-over-rice dish (which many of my dishes are). I might never find out, because I've been eating them all individually, and might only go so far as to dip them in a little bit of salt, edamame-style, before they're gone.

my back is still f--ked, but a little less f--ked than yesterday. I had to enlist the help of a friend who does healing stuff, and while I haven't received the full rub-down and gong treatment yet, he poked and prodded and pulled at me for a little bit, and it did help, some. I'm still pushing it with the yoga, and managed to do things this morning without getting stuck, so that's a vast improvement.

thankfully, the sky opened up last night and let LOOSE the rain, so I can avoid watering the garden for one more day. Sunday, hive inspection day, is quickly approaching, so I'm crossing my fingers and my toes, and also wondering if I couldn't develop some kind of system involving milk crates at graduating heights to lift the hive boxes onto. anything would be better than the old heave-ho from waist level to ground level, I'm sure. lift with the legs, work smart not hard, and so on and so forth.
