Fink, I'll catch up with you sometime tomorrow, if you're free. Doesn't have to be a long thing. :)

ARFink, that is one of the most beautiful, spiritually stirring things that I have ever seen.   Wow.  VERY Trinitarian.  Just WOW.

So apparently square watermelons are the thing in Japan.

 

 

They grow them in these neat acrylic boxes (which I imagine are laser cut, just because I like to imagine such things)

 

 

Then they put the watermelon in the laser too. How fancy.

 

 

I bet they taste the same as other watermelons, and just cost more. But dang, they look cool!

The square watermelons got me thinking about how the Victorians got cucumbers to grow straight....

 

in glass tubes, of course...

 

 

 

Are your cucumbers straight?

The Victorian age was prolific in its inventiveness,
but there are times to modern eyes when you just have to wonder "Why?". For
instance, the Victorians were such perfectionists that they invented glass tubes
to go over their cucumbers to make them grow straight...Now that really is
taking uniformity to the extreme! (But then, when you next take a glance in a
supermarket vegetable aisle, at all the "perfect" produce-are we that different
really?) Are your cucumbers straight?

Space wise it kind of makes sense too... I mean a normal watermelon always takes up so much room in the fridge and since space is at a premium there...

 

But that is awesome. I wanna try this with squashes!

Huzzah for business expenses. :|

 

I just placed a couple of huge orders for 140lb cold press paper and 1/8" acrylic in every color of the rainbow. I'm quite excited to get that stuff in. :)
