Dane will be at Matthews Winter Market (8-10am)
He will have:
5 heads of red cabbage
Kale
Collards
Spinach
Tot Choi
Sauce - great for teacher gifts - no fat, no sugar, not traveled thousands of miles....
Maria will be at Charlotte 7-12
She will have:
Sauce
Collards
Unshelled Pecans
Tot Choi
Pine cones (not for eating.)
The weather this week was so nice that it was a good time to be outside. Dane told me that this November was the coldest November since 1974. I heard on NPR that there is a job where a person sits around and finds a coincidental number to go with pretty much any event. Usually this is used with sports, so one can say something like, "The last time we saw a super-star-baseball-player hit a ball at that angle, the five stars in the left hand side of the moon at 10 pm were aligned and ten children were shown on TV eating popcorn!! So - children all over the world should get their butter and salt ready now!! Go Superstar Go!!!" But seriously - there have been a number of crops that looked like they were going to make nice harvest and they wilted down with frost or got little ice crystals in between the mesophyll and the epidermis or got white spots on the leaves associated with photo-oxidative stress (the frost made the photon receptors too slow to pick up the energy of the sun and the energy went to a crazy Oxygen instead and the Oxygen went around stealing parts off of the cellular molecules.) Crazy Oxygen. So, frost is not fun - but not unexpected either. Also - no insects except honey bees. I like cold better than hot because I can dress for cold. I am hoping to modify a camelbak to be an ice-backpack this summer. Maybe that will bring down core-temperature.
