• Understanding French rural life, and compliments about cabbages

  
  Philobiblon — Authority: 103
  When you start reading Martine Segalen’s Love and Power in the Peasant Family: Rural France in the Nineteenth Century , you might think she’s taking on straw men.

• Food exports good, food imports bad

  
  Boy on a bike — Authority: 135
  I heard the other day that Australia grows enough food to feed 80 million people. We export enough food to feed 60 million people - the equivalent of the UK. Another way of thinking about that is we only eat 1/4 of what we grow. We export 3/4 of what we grow. Consider then the SMH getting upset when our ...

• A Mason Jar, Tinker Bell and a Scorpion Named Luke

  
  Amy's Musings — Authority: 103
  She spent the summer capturing butterflies and keeping them in a mason jar. Some life preserving soul in the house had the good sense to cut slits in the top and encourage her to place a few zinnias in the jar as well. Thank goodness. Late at night I would creep downstairs and like a Schindler’s List version of ...

  Foreign Perspectives — Authority: 122
