Our CSA has totally been asparagus, leafy greens, and herbs. Next week we get strawberries, though.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I have hit a wall in the house cleaning / decluttering. 4 things to mail out and 1 medium box of things tagged for a garage sale.
I finished my reread of A Clash of Kings.
That pretty much killed my day.
Our farm box had eggplant, tomatoes, cucumbers, peaches, strawberries, blueberries, summer squash, mushrooms, cantalope, peppers, pattypan squash, and sprouts. Nom! We are doing eggplant parmesan tonight.
My garden is just getting started. It's been really rainy and cold, so most things were planted late. I have some spinach up and strawberries are just starting to form. Eta: And the cilantro I grew last year reseeded itself and is going crazy. Everything else are just sprouting seedlings or tiny transplants. Shortest growing season ever!
I wish our CSA combined veggies and fruits. They are separate shares and I am only signed up for veggies.
I've been challenged to say why genre TV is decades behind mainstream fiction.
Behind in what way?
Behind in what way?
Integrating minorities as fully-fleshed characters.
But I don't think it is. I think TV is behind life, but genre and mainstream are reasonably even.
there's an unaired scene [or just unaired in the US?] that addresses it, though, again, without using the actual word
Which scene is that? The guy who was telling me first he was gay was using the "Your date"..."I'm not his date!" scene as ammo, but I didn't see the US cut, so I don't know if that was it.
It was the scene in the restaurant. I'ma have to see if I can find it. When did Sherlock air in the US? Because there were lots of links in the asexual LJ community at that time.
I didn't see the restaurant scene as an indication of asexuality as much as awkward heterosexuality making sure no one gets any ideas. My worldview is pretty binary, though, when it comes to relationships (trinary? MF, MM, FF?) so I don't think to look for all the possible shadings.
