Philip the Bard's Harappan blog: A post from Ina.


Welcome gentle readers. My name is Ina Normer. I am Philip’s wife. I don’t refer to him as Philip the Bard for obvious reasons. If I don’t keep his ego in check who will?

Philip got carried away last night at the Bird in Hand tavern so I’ll fill in for him today.

We have a small house and a decent sized garden. I tend the garden while my husband works on his books. He helps in the yard occasionally.

Growing under a red sun has been a learning experience. Earth and Harappa have similar suns. Most of the plants we came to Kusha with have survived and adapted to the different light but some failed. We can’t grow roses or dahlias but the sunflowers do very well. Most of the Earth and Harappan veggies have adapted, though the only Harappan food we have here is the sweet tuber.

Some old Harappans grow Harappan algae indoors but it wont survive under the Kushan Sun.

Oh, I hear stirrings from down the hallway. I’d better tend to the “Bard”. 

Have a great weekend!

Never mix red wine with Oodo.
