PrettyTiny Film Company -- random pix (Mar. 27)

[Alliecat]

Bookshelf pics are always fascinating. I'm wondering if you're read all of those seafaring books.

The tape measure, the smaller one near the front of the toolbox, reminds me of one my grandfather had, that's still around here in one of my toolboxes. Did some of those tools belong to your dad?

Did Sunsette tie all those knots in the case herself?

They are, aren't they.  And yes, except I admit to not having read all of Harland -- it was a reference book for a project (well, most of them were).  And the Ramages are mid-series; I picked them up at a market but didn't get started at the beginning of the series so I haven't read them yet.

Yes, his workshop.  Mostly his stuff but there is a group of 'workshop spirits' he kidded about, from several other people's/previous generation's tools.  

Of course she did!

You actually individually pollinate the squash flowers? I saw the pic you posted about gathering pollen. That's dedicated gardening!

OK, this is probably a stupid question, but how does one tell that a squash flower is female?

It's not a stupid question.  And I actually just learned about doing this last weekend, because I thought I was getting a lil squash in the new boxes, then it began to squizzle up, and I'd noticed a couple of the pumpkin flowers had a different shape, so I began to wonder if the flowers were single-sex.  Now I know why previous squashes that came up from compost seeds made flowers but never did anything else. The failed one didn't get pollinated.

Lejays shares the minis tastes in TV. She quite liked Farscape.

Yay!  
I'm stretching out my re-watch, 2nd time through the whole series, for as long as I can make it last.  Any other universe is better than this one at the moment
