I love the index, but I wish you have posted more about how you met and courted Marlene.
Unless I missed some in there, you only briefly mention her in Part 10, against in part 15, and finally in Part 19. But only in passing. :)
Hi Tracy,
Go to the "Deliberate Agrarian Archives" over on the right side of the page. Click on "My Younger Days." There you will find a link to my essay titled, "The Wife of My Youth." That tells the whole story. Well most of it. Thanks for asking.
Herrick, my garlic this year was beautiful!!! I have it hanging in net bags in my new pantry room. It is not in direct sunlight and the air can flow all around it. I have a horrendous infestation of fruit flies in my kitchen. I have set out vinegar traps, taken the compost bucket out back and set out a lemon trap as well. I just noticed there are some on my garlic out in the pantry, which is another room. Do you think they will ruin it? Any suggestions?
