Eating Clouds

Why would anyone want to eat clouds? Well, I am reliably informed that Canadian Native American women "eat clouds" when the weather is wet and they want to dry their washing. It's that simple. That's their motivation and, amazingly, it guarantees them dry clothes.

I was already a rainmaker when I made this discovery. I just hadn't thought too much about the reverse, so I began trying this technique a few years ago during our wet season. I didn't tell anyone what I was doing so that their doubts couldn't impact on my experiment. I simply walked outside, looked at the washing on the clothes line and pretended to eat clouds. I munched 'em. My intention was that I was eating clouds to dry my washing. The results were amazing. Washing dried on my clothes line, even when it was raining at the end of the street. By the time my technique had worked a few dozen times I felt confident enough to share it with others. Like rainmaking it's all about the organisation of cells, quantum physics by any other name.

Recently I received my first newsletter from www.patricenewell.com.au concerning their forthcoming garlic crop. Now I am love great garlic, both for flavour and for its health benefits, and I can guarantee that Patrice's garlic is one of the very best. The only thing threatening this year's garlic November crop is – wait for it – too much rain, or hail storms. Usually it's not enough rain, but this year it's too much. Such are the joys of being a farmer.

So I dashed off an email to Patrice to share the proven technique I'd learnt from an amazing Native American woman. For garlic's sake, or rather for the sake of my garlic order, I hope someone down on the farm gives it a go! It's so easy.

Have some fun with it yourself. After all, if you usually use a clothes dryer in wet weather eating clouds not only saves you money, it's kinder to the planet as well because it is sustainable. There are no carbon emissions from eating clouds.
And, if you are very lucky, I may save some of my garlic to share with you.
