Memorial Day Weekend Garden Update

Saturday:

Weeded.

Planted beans (green and yellow), summer squash, and winter squash.
Had something pull up about 18 plants -- didn't eat them, just pull up and leave them. I seemed to save them in time. Sunday morning found one more, not sure if I missed it before or not.

Hauled lots of grass from the dump, plus I met a guy dumping a truck load of bags full of grass who offered to come over and dump them at my place :) Hopefully he'll make regular drop offs this summer!

Cheesy Asparagus and Flounder, with Strawberries.

Was based on a Facebook post by Janet about Aunt Eleanor making asparagus with cheese (she uses cheddar soup):

Garden Update

Tomato, Eggplant, and Sweet Pepper six-packs went in today. Potatoes got their first hilling.

My kale and lettuce from seed is still quite small (so need to finish the cold frame for next spring!) so I sprung for some six packs of those too as a supplement:

Onions are looking absolutely fabulous!

Prepped the bed for the beans along the fence. Later this week or next I'll plant the bean and squash seeds.

Not exactly my skinny jeans but...

Well, the couple year old pair of jeans I was using for yard work finally blew out a seam from overwork yesterday.

Went into a bureau drawer and pulled out an older pair -- just a smidge tight, enough if buying new I might bump up a size to be safe, by they fit. The pair that finally wore out were 54/30. The ones I'm wearing right now, 50/30.

Edited to add: And I tore a massive rip in them. I'm going to have to check the mower, I'm wondering if there is something sharp by the seat I'm catching the pants on?!

About flirting...

A mid-May picture dump...

I'm in the process of a garage re-organization. I rolled Papu's old work bench out, painted it with Rustoleum (brush on, not can...well spray can for the vise), got it back in and put an exercise mat on top to help protect it.

Didn't that little bread come out great? Remembered to mix in Carraway seed this time, 2 cups bread flour, 1 cup rye.

Vegetarian dinner -- my asparagus.

The Tulips I bought last May down in North Stonington:

And I went and got some more (also stopped at Agway for some more plants; I bought my main batch of Tomatoes at a little stand on the Pomfret/Putnam town line; looks like the person I went to last year in Plainfield is no longer starting their own :( )

Made a rhubarb-strawberry crumble. I think the sauce I did a real good job on -- cooking it on low-medium on the stove top let me use a sieve to drain out the water so there was no need for thickening. I think cooked a little more and drained like that it will make great pie filling.

Before the topping...I managed to eat half of that last night. Unfortunately I remembered this morning Rhubarb is a great laxative :D

This one weird trick...

First Big Asparagus Harvest! (5/7)

Delayed post...actually picked this on 5/7 at 6:30 and gave to Mom...and she and Ed ate them all for dinner that night!

I like asparagus, but in moderation (like 1/4th of this in a sitting!)

Providence & Danielson Railway through East Killingly

The news today mentioned a sinkhole forming by the Acme Pond dam, and looking at the area on Google Maps it suddenly dawned on me the old "road" through the woods between the Acme and Whetstone Mills was most likely the trolley, as well as the causeway that crosses the pond between Acme and Bog Meadow Ponds:

This routing help shave the peak elevation of the line compared to having it run over present day Route 101. As it was they trolley operated with reduced capacity from Elmville (Route 12) to it's highest point here in East Killingly due to elevation gain the line had to make combined the voltage drop from their generators located in Rockland, RI (now under the Scituate Reservoir).

I believe the structure north of Bear Hill Road along Bog Meadow Pond is not the trolley line, but instead a dam to form another pond to the southwest of Bog Meadow Pond. I believe the trolley ran over Bear Hill & East Killingly Roads to present day RI Route 94 where it headed south to Foster Center (and on to Providence).

And the first herbs of '14

Since I put in the herb garden last year -- was able to pick Oregano and Thyme to add to the chicken soup this morning!

The carcass was in the crock pot overnight. I bought this chicken at Wegmans and knew as soon as I picked it up they had injected it with water, looks like it made really nice stock, but I definitely like the Big Y chickens better (which aren't pumped up).

And we have our first harvest of '14

Quotes

Ceterum autem censeo Carthaginem esse delendam ("Furthermore, I consider that Carthage must be destroyed"), often abbreviated to Carthago delenda est ("Carthage must be destroyed")
"Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-one years in the world with very little to distress or vex her." -- If anyone questions an Oxford comma, my future replay shall be if it is good enough for Austen it is good enough for me. No vanguish thyselfs you ambigious mother fuckers.
Fear is a reaction. Courage is a decision.
DECLARATION of the ACADÉMIE FRANÇAISE on the WRITING called "INCLUSIVE" adopted unanimously by its members in the meeting of Thursday, October 26, 2017 Taking note of the spread of an "inclusive writing" that claims to be the norm, the French Academy unanimously raises a solemn warning. The multiplication of orthographic and syntactic marks that it induces leads to a disunited language, disparate in its expression, creating a confusion that borders on illegibility. It is difficult to see what the objective is and how it could overcome the practical obstacles of writing, reading - visual or aloud - and pronunciation. It would weigh on the task of the pedagogues. This would further complicate that of readers. More than any other institution, the French Academy is sensitive to developments and innovations in the language, since its mission is to codify them. On this occasion, it is less a guardian of the norm than a guarantor of the future that it raises a cry of alarm: before this "inclusive" aberration, the French language is now in mortal danger, which our nation is now accountable to future generations. It is already difficult to acquire a language, what will happen if the use adds to it second and altered forms? How will future generations grow in intimacy with our written heritage? As for the promises of the Francophonie, they will be destroyed if the French language prevents itself by this duplication of complexity, for the benefit of other languages that will take advantage to prevail on the planet.
“Under Jefferson,” he said, “our republican Constitution will sink to Mobocracy, the worst of all possible governments.” -- Supreme Court Justice Samuel Chase
"As a fundamental factor of personal autonomy, one should be allowed -- but not required as their only option -- to beg a doctor for poison. Why should the state have any more authority to require someone to live against their consent than they do to execute someone?" -- MRK
"It is in the nature of a man's mind. A thing which you enjoyed and used as your own for a long time, whether property or opinion, takes root in your being and cannot be torn away without your re- senting the act and trying to defend yourself, however you came by it" -- Oliver Wendell Holmes

"By this means twenty of the best geniusses will be raked from the rubbish annually" -- Thomas Jefferson (White Trash is not a modern term...)

"Like Whitehouse, these students are “reactionaries”, responding to anything they deem to be “insensitive” or “problematic” because it challenges their notion of what is acceptable to a civilised and moral society, and because the kind of art that Reed created was reckless, experimental, and yes, wild. And that scares them. " Lionel Shriver
"I am an irrational hard ass with anger issues. Do not piss me off." -- Zeke Braverman (Parenthood)
"Political correctness is the social force that holds them in contempt for that, or punishes them outright."
"Within a group, selfish individuals always win. But in contests between groups, groups of altruists always beat groups of selfish individuals." -- E. O. Wilson
"There is a terrible pink mixture (with tomatoes in it and herbs) called Manhattan Clam Chowder, that is only a vegetable soup, and not to be confused with New England Clam Chowder, nor spoken of in the same breath. Tomatoes and clams have no more affinity than ice cream and horseradish." -- Eleanor Early
"I've seen monkey-shit fights at the zoo that are more organized than this." -- Edward O'Neil in "The Replacements"
" Liberalism sees political rights as a positive good — rights for one are rights for all. “Democracy” means political rights for every citizen. The far left defines democracy as the triumph of the subordinate class over the privileged class. Political rights only matter insofar as they are exercised by the oppressed. The oppressor has no rights." -- NY Magazine
I know nobody will read my status but sometimes when I'm bored, I get wrapped up in my tutu, put a giant horn on my head, lather sparkles all over myself and prance around the kitchen pretending I'm a magical unicorn!

"Teach the girls to cook and sew. Teach the boy to cut wood, take care of a garden, milk a cow, hunt and fish. Give the boy a boat and a dog and a gun, if he acts sensible. Teach him to use carpenter’s tools. Give a girl a sewing machine. Educate your children so they can become wage earners. Girls need a college education, just as much as boys. " Jared Busby
"Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women, and in that endeavor, laziness will not do." ~John Keating
"Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the Government's purposes are beneficent. Men born to freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of their liberty by evil-minded rulers. The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well meaning but without understanding." -- Louis Brandeis, Olmstead dissent
"When you get out in the field, you'll be sitting on your ass for a long time," he said. " Be ready to go to work. Pay attention to the rules. Compete in sports. Stay in shape. Get your hair cut. And for Christ's sake, be men." -- Chicago Fire Commissioner Robert Quinn
"I should suppose that moral, political, and practical considerations would dictate that a very first principle of that wisdom would be an insistence upon avoiding secrecy for its own sake. For when everything is classified, then nothing is classified, and the system becomes one to be disregarded by the cynical or the careless, and to be manipulated by those intent on self protection or self-promotion. I should suppose, in short, that the hallmark of a truly effective internal security system would be the maximum possible disclosure, recognizing that secrecy can best be preserved only when credibility is truly maintained." -- Justice Stewart, New York Times v. United States, 1971.
"Evangelical and Amish vocabularies are analogous to two foreign languages describing the same sentiments of love. One is a communal language of patience, humility, community, and practice; the other is an individualistic language of beliefs, certainty, feelings, and experience. Whereas evangelical Christians want to know, control, plan, and act to guarantee their salvation, the Amish outlook is a more modest and perhaps honest one." -- Donald Kraybill
"One of the painful things about our time is that those who feel certainty are stupid, and those with any imagination and understanding are filled with doubt and indecision" -- Bertrand Russel

"Men may, because of ignorance or habit, ruin their soils, but more often economic or social conditions, entirely out of their control, lead or force them to a treatment of their lands that can only end in ruin.” -- Avery Craven
"Currently in the legal system there’s this myth of equality. And the assumption is if you are over 18 and you have an IQ of over 70 then all brains are created equal. And, of course, that’s a very charitable idea but it’s demonstrably false. Brains are extraordinarily different from one another. Brains are essentially like fingerprints; we’ve all got them but they’re somewhat different. And so by imagining that everyone has the exact same capacity for decision-making, for understanding future consequences, for squelching their impulsive behavior and so on, what we’re doing is we’re imagining that everybody should be treated the same. And, of course, what has happened is that our prison system has become our de facto mental health care system. Estimates are that about 30 percent of the prison population has some sort of mental illness. " -- David Eagleman on Fresh Air 8-24-12
"Commence station security log Stardate 47282.5. At the request of commander Sisko, I will hereafter be recording a daily log of law enforcement affairs. The reason for this exercise is beyond my comprehension. Except perhaps that humans have a compulsion to keep records and lists and files. So many in fact that they have to invent new ways to store them microscopically. Otherwise their records would overrun all known civilization. My own very adequate memory not being good enough for starfleet I am pleased to put my voice to this official record of this day: Everything's under control. End log." -- Odo
"A large Japanese fleet has been contacted. They are fifteen miles away and headed in our direction. They are believed to have four battleships, eight cruisers, and a number of destroyers. This will be a fight against overwhelming odds from which survival cannot be expected. We will do what damage we can." LCDR Robert W. Copeland, USS Samuel B. Roberts, Samar, Battle of Leyte Gulf
"By force and terror, to prevent all political action not in accord with the views of the members; to deprive colored citizens of the right to bear arms and of the right to a free ballot; to suppress schools in which colored children were taught and to reduce the colored people to a condition akin to that of slavery." -- Ulysses S. Grant

"The problem with quotes on the internet is anyone can make them up." -- Abraham Lincoln
"There are two ideas of government. There are those who believe that if you just legislate to make the well-to-do prosperous, that their prosperity will leak through on those below. The Democratic idea has been that if you legislate to make the masses prosperous their prosperity will find its way up and through every class that rests upon it." -- William Jennings Bryant, 1896
"What made Western civilization rich and liberal was not just free-market capitalism and well-founded constitutional government, but the role of family, community, and church in reminding the emancipated individual in an affluent society that he should not always do what he is legally permitted to. Destroy these bridles, ridicule the old shame culture of the past, and we end up with unchecked appetites." -- Victor Davis Hanson
Aristotle's "Modes of Persuasion" in rhetoric lays out it depends on we find ethos (speaker's credibility), pathos (emotional connection to the audience), and logos (rational argument)
"When I was a boy, we used, in order to draw oft' the harriers from the trail of a hare that we had set down as our own private property, get to her haunt early in the morning, and drag a red-herring, tied to a string, four or five miles over hedges and ditches, across fields and through coppices, till we got to a point, whence we were pretty sure the hunters would not return to the spot where they had thrown off; and, though I would, by no means, be understood, as comparing the editors and proprietors of the London daily press to animals half so sagacious and so faithful as hounds, I cannot help thinking, that, in the case to which we are referring, they must have been misled, at first, by some political deceiver." -- William Cobbet, 1807
"Every thing secret degenerates, even the administration of justice; nothing is safe that does not show how it can bear discussion and publicity." -- Lord Acton

"One sometimes gets the impression that the mere words ‘Socialism’ and ‘Communism’ draw towards them with magnetic force every fruit-juice drinker, nudist, sandal-wearer, sex-maniac, Quaker, ‘Nature Cure’ quack, pacifist, and feminist in England." -- George Orwell, Road to Wiggan Pier, 1937
"If you have the law on your side, argue the law; if you have the facts, argue the facts; if you have neither, pound the table."
"What is unique about the US – and indispensable to the understanding of it – is that it is a country of the displaced and dispossessed: a nation which invented itself for the very purpose of permitting people to reinvent themselves, to take their fate into their own hands, to be liberated from the persecution and the paternalism of the old cultures they had left behind. Almost every American either is himself, or is descended from, someone who made a conscious decision to pull up his roots and take his chances in a land he had almost certainly never seen and which, until quite recently, offered no protection or security if the gamble failed. " -- Janet Daley
"And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music" -- Friedrich Nietzsche

"Every right implies a responsibility." -- John D. Rockefeller, Jr.
"Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what a people will submit to, and you have found out the exact amount of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them; and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress. Men may not get all they pay for in this world; but they must pay for all they get. If we ever get free from all the oppressions and wrongs heaped upon us, we must pay for their removal. We must do this by labor, by suffering, by sacrifice, and, if needs be, by our lives, and the lives of others." -- Frederick Douglas
"Doubt is not a pleasant mental state, but certainty is a ridiculous one. " -- Voltaire

"The ability to subdue the enemy without battle is a reflection of the ultimate supreme strategy. The supreme is to attack enemies' strategies and plans, by thwarting them. Next is to attack the enemies' strategic alliances with other nations. The next option is to attack enemy troops. The worst option is to attack the cities." -- Sun Tzu, Art of War
"[H]ad I so interfered in behalf of the rich, the powerful, the intelligent, the so-called great, or in behalf of any of their friends--either father, mother, brother, sister, wife, or children, or any of that class--and suffered and sacrificed what I have in this interference, it would have been all right; and every man in this court would have deemed it an act worthy of reward rather than punishment." -- John Brown, speech at his trial
Better that ten guilty persons escape, than that one innocent suffer. -- William Blackstone
In vino, veritas.
Treat stressful situations like a dog -- if you can't eat it or hump it, piss on it and walk away.
Gettysburg Address -- Abraham Lincoln
"Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.... We've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. Well, if no one among us is capable of government himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? All of us together, in and out of government, must bear the burden. The solutions we seek must be equitable, with no one group singled out to pay a higher price." -- Ronald Reagan
"All truth is one. In this light may science and religion labor here together for the steady evolution of mankind from darkness to light; from prejudice to tolerance; from narrowness to broadmindedness." -- Judge Cuthbert W.

"I hear you are considering changing the zoning law to prevent the festival. I hear you don't like the look of the kids who are working at the site. I hear you don't like their lifestyle. I hear you don't like they are against the war and that they say so very loudly. . . I don't particularly like the looks of some of those kids either. I don't particularly like their lifestyle, especially the drugs and free love. And I don't like what some of them are saying about our government. However, if I know my American history, tens of thousands of Americans in uniform gave their lives in war after war just so those kids would have the freedom to do exactly what they are doing. That's what this Country is all about and I am not going to let you throw them out of our Town just because you don't like their dress or their hair or the way they live or what they believe. This is America and they are going to have their festival." -- Max Yasgur to the Bethel Town Board
