If you ask me, the internet could do with a lot less "fandom" and a lot more femdom

Me in 2006: I’m still bitter about that

Me in 2016: I’m still salty about that

Me in 2026, probably: I’m still umami about that

Well, are you?. We’re waiting.

There’s a lot to be umami about these days.

How do you preserve the food from your garden so it doesn't go bad before you can eat it?

You are wildly underestimating my ability to go fucking feral about fresh produce. I don't think I even brought snap peas into the house last year. Just ate them right off the vine.

Though I did end up freezing the strawberries/blue berries as they ripened, but even those were consumed within the week.

The only tough one was the potatoes, but that was resolved by just foisting potatoes on everyone I knew. Much more welcome than Zucchinis.

Oh this is why every gardening person I know keeps trying to give me the food they grow

gallusrostromegalus

That, and we love you. Homegrown produce is a love language.

Unless it's zucchini. Then it's a cry for help.

This woodblock print is a legendary masterwork by the Shin-hanga (New Print) virtuoso Shiro Kasamatsu (1898–1991). Titled "Iizaka" (depicting the historic hot-spring onsen town of Iizaka in Fukushima Prefecture). It captures the profound, quiet solitude of a mountain hot-spring village wrapped in winter twilight.
