Yesterday I visited Blackrock Market (had a great meal at the 3leaves) and recovered from the flight, today I'm going to start walking on Wicklow's Way.

#ireland

I'm building my first devtool web extension. Starting with firefox support first since it supports less features and should be easier to port to chrome than the other way around.

It's a state inspector and event logger for #datastar (https://data-star.dev)

Delaney already did the groundwork of making a web component that displays the store versions and the events log, but I'm trying to get it to appear in the actual devtools rather than as an element of the page.

That first step is done, but it doesnt do much since it needs access to the inspected pages state. So I need to set up message passing between the devtool, browser and page.

That basic infrastructure for that was easy to set up by following the docs, the trickier part I suspect is getting the page to send the right data at the right time and modifying the inspector's code to receive state changes from the browser script.

Demo of WIP #vim mode in #plan9 #acme

So clicking g then 1 brings me to the first line.

Still have to figure out mode switching.

I've been experimenting with more whole wheat in my #bread and I'm up to 50% whole wheat with both flours being stone ground.

The taste is great, the crust is crusty and it's not too dense, but I think the oven rise could be better.

#Dehydrating blueberries I picked at school

Fried japanese beetles I foraged at an organic farm.

Kind of tastes like fried chicken

While out #foraging for #chokecherry I found #mushroom again. More glabrous stemmed boletes but also some orange boletes, ghost bolete and a chrome footed bolete.

#Mushroom #Foraging found some smooth stemmed boletes and a short stemmed russula this morning. The youngest specimen will be eaten fresh, the rest have been cut up and put to dry. Theres one or two bicolor boletes too.

This is a similar looking physalis that is a lot more rhyzomatous, it is currently taking over two contiguous areas in a long smart pot in montreal. They seem to lounge a lot more than the ones in tremblant, but they where in a very sunny area for the first month and a half of summer and then where moved in a shadier spot by necessity, so they might simply be reaching for the sun.

I'm not sure if it's only one genetic entity, but I think I put two separate individuals in last year.

So the perennial ground cherries I planted last year came back ! Probably Physalis Longifolia or Virginiana, but I'm unsure.

They're still small as the yard isnt the sunniest and Tremblant takes a long time to warm up, but I'll try and give them some love while I'm here.

Stratifying wild #plant seeds

I made these very tasty #sourdough #bagels https://www.theperfectloaf.com/sourdough-bagel

They were maybe a bit too crispy, I recommend reducing the convection to 450 f after 10 minutes and leaving it only 8 minutes more.

Turkeys are back ! And one of them is very optimistic about fitting in the bird feeder.

Today I foraged for Medeola Virginiana, also known as Indian cucumber root (I've been unable to find a native name, though I'd love to learn one).

They grow in clonal colonies, so good foraging practice is to only pick them if you see more than two mature specimens ( they have two whorls of leaves).

They're quite pretty in autumn, when they get a red flush at the base of the second whorl. Their roots taste almost exactly like cucumbers.

Went #mushroom #foraging this morning ! Mostly boletes, chanterelles and pied de mouton (lambs feet?). But theres also some chaga, mint and a few other things.

I harvested some boletes today, some small ones that look like bicolors and some bigger ones that may be something else. I tasted a bit of the small ones as my books all agreed they were safe because only the bottom of the cap would turn blue. The bigger ones quickly got completely blue after cutting them in half, my books were a lot less certain on their edibility, so i'm not tasting them yet.

Some truly great Mullein and some wonderful Monarda #floraspondence

Picked some ripe #tomatoes in my mums garden today. On the left are Ildi multiflora, in the back are the OSU P20, the other orange in the middle and the slightly more yellow one on the right are from two different Lofthouse Wildlings.

#gardening

I was able to wrestle a few mostly ripe #tomatoes from the squirrels today.

From top to bottom we have the OSU P20 black tomato, the Ildi multiflora tomato and a lofthouse wildling tomato.

I've put a breathable bag around the remaining tomatoes in an attempt to discourage the buggers from stealing any more.

#gardening

Heres a pic of all the #books I'll be reading over the next few months. Mostly about indigenous seed saving practices and perspectives. Some technical seed saving references and some botanical or cultural treatises.

Now I think I have to donate a few books to fit these in my library.
