I despaired of ever having a long growing season again! Though I have gardened since childhood, I didn’t know anything about growing in a place with real winter until I moved to Utah. I grew up Northern California where the growing season is eleven months long where basil reseeds and citrus drops heavy and juicy in the middle of January. What is season extension? It is harvesting year round, even in winter. This was the first book I read on the subject of season extension in the garden and I’ve used it ever since. Why has it taken me so long to review this book?! Maybe its because I’m so used to Four Season Harvest being by my side every early spring and fall planting that I just assumed you were already using it, too. Gardening Book I Use for Season Extension Wondering if you really can grow food year round? Ever seen Four Season Harvest on the book shelves and wondered if it would be all that useful in the garden? Here’s a little book review to help you out. ![]() ![]() ![]() Is it too much to say that Alan Kurdi swung the election for Trudeau? That's a question for future political analysts to answer. Preternaturally wired to meme culture, the Trudeau machine understood what their Conservative predecessors had somehow failed to: Images of dead children are worth a thousand "barbaric cultural practices" tip-lines. This un-erasable image, which travelled worldwide appended to the hashtag #KiyiyaVuranInsalik (humanity washed ashore), helped make the Syrian refugee crisis a central issue in Canada's recent federal election. They were there to close an image loop, one that began months earlier with the photograph of a three-year-old Syrian toddler named Alan Kurdi lying face down in the sand of the Turkish littoral. 11, 2015, during the photo op that has come to define the early days of the second Trudeau era, the new Prime Minister and his handlers arrived at Toronto Pearson International Airport bearing killer smiles. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Dev Patel's character is one of the most likable you will ever come across but then all the characters, bar one, have characteristics that just grow on you. It is a while since I saw a movie that made me laugh out loud so much and so frequently. The range of emotions this movie drags out of you, and the speed it does it, is incredible and I have to thank the scriptwriters and director for that. The title can be a little off putting but anyone who has seen "Fried Green Tomatoes At The Whistle Stop Cafe" will tell you that a daft title is not a precursor to a bad film. Once it is released to paying customers, I can assure you that this score will go up considerably. If they are in the UK then they probably watched the film at a free viewing like I did, as it hasn't been released yet, and they have no right to slag it off seeing at it cost them jack. Fist of all, anyone who has given this film a score of one (and some have), obviously have no sense of humour. ![]() |
