This takes me back to the Avocado Green phone that hung on the wall in our kitchen.

In the 70’s, when you didn’t own the phone. You leased them from Ma Bell…

Try turning it aroundin your mind few times. The answer will probably leap out at you. If not, you're probably just screwed.

What's a telephone cord?

BeingofLove t1_j6lif82 wrote

Back in the before times, phones used to plug in to a special port in the wall. The part you would speak into was called the receiver. The receiver was connected to the telephone with a coiled cord so you could gain a bit more distance from the telephone while using it.

I have a land line. When the power goes out, I unplug the cordless receiver and plug in our corded phone that I keep in the china cupboard.

Where did you find the green beans? I’ve never seen them spiraled like that before!

theyreall_throwaways t1_j6lrzcc wrote

These are just long beans that OP shaped by hand to be spiral springs, they don't grow this way. They're called Yard beans, Chinese long beans, asparagus beans, or snake beans.

Found a page showing how it's done, but link was removed. You can try googling "garnish from long bean".

OP, I kinda hate that you dropped this pic and just left us all in confusion. But kinda glad you sent me on a seed adventure.

We grow yard king beans in our garden- never tried this fanciness haha. But sautéed with some summer squash, garlic, onion, and fresh tomatoes with a bit of fresh basil... pretty tasty!

I like looking through Baker creek catalog and seeing all the fruits and veggies I never knew existed. I knew I had never seen anything like it before and wondered how they all looked so perfect. Are you happy with the yield you get with your beans for the space they take?

Nowherelandusa t1_j6nuu3y wrote

Yeah, we bought our seeds from Burgess Seed & Plant Co. I love looking through seed catalogs, especially when’s it’s cold and yuck outside, and I can dream of my summer garden haha.

The yard longs produced really well for us. If you pick them often, they produce better. We hadn’t done pole beans before- a little bit of work on the front end, but it beats bending down so much during harvest!

I love our garden, but it does become backbreaking at times. I need to give some serious thoughts about what I'm planting this year. Last year we had problems with a gopher and it ate so many of our tomatoes and dahlias, and stripped 80% of the potato leaves.

I'd plant everything if only I had the money (and the energy). Happy gardening.

Nowherelandusa t1_j6oihu0 wrote

I hear you! And we are expecting a little one early this summer, so I’ll probably be about 0 help haha. We would really love to do some raised beds eventually, but time, energy, and budget haven’t aligned yet haha.

My dad always said he had time but not money, or money but no time. Sadly it's hard to have both at once, esp with kids in the mix. Congrats on the new addition.
