  • I’m actually second-guessing my elephant garlic thought… I planted my first clove this year and it took a month and a half to sprout!!! I thought it had died due to heat, but I finally saw its thumb-sized sprout coming up a couple days ago. My normal garlic only takes a week or so to sprout over here in AZ. The elephant garlic seed leaves look more like an iris or tulip coming up. That one commenter was probably on point, saying the bulb was too young to start segmenting into cloves. That was news to me and I’m over the moon about it! Thank you so much for posting about this in the first place!!!









  • I just recently learned the words “mortise” and “tenon” on my recent woodworking video binge. I saw your table and was instantly giddy with excitement! I’m not a carpenter, but I can see what I would call artistry in your work. And excellence. This table exudes excellence. Be so proud!!!

    If you ever need inspiration for more impulse projects, I recommend looking up videos from Blacktail Studio. That’s what got a painter like me started on a mild obsession with carpentry.

    I think your shock and confusion is 100% valid. The whole point of trekking out to remote camping spot in a National Forest is usually to get the hell away from other people, is it not? That seems… rude at worst, and ignorant of them at best.


  • I got you, fam! I would love to be the one breaking my back, sweating in the dirt, and fighting the weeds. Especially if someone else is handling the toilets. From my point of view, the thing we seem to be missing the most in society today is a sense of real purpose. I think I could absolutely find that through working a community-sustaining garden.
