Lazy Magnolia True Green IPA (Picked up at Corner Market in Hattiesburg, MS). A 3 of 4. A solid hazy IPA with pineapple and other tropical fruit and quite a bit of orange citrus. Some juiciness and a light to medium body. Not bad at all.

true green osamu, did u go behind tsumu's back and finally made a move on his beloved little girl? If so how'd u do it without getting caught knowing how protective and possessive tsumu has been.

“Whoah, no moves were being made on anyone!” He smiles, before chuckling. “That’s real risky when it’s in a situation like this, ya kno? But I know Tsumu. And she’s a real sweet thing, and she likes me. Tsumu’s not gonna be able ta keep his thumb down on ‘er the entire time. Pretty girl will come ‘round ta visit at some point. I seen the way Tsumu looks at ‘er, but he doesn’t know a thing about playin’ the long game.”

He tugs the cap a little lower, and the smile slides off a little. “Ya kno, Tsumu was always like that. Couldn’t stand it growin’ up. He’ll learn his lesson one way or another, ‘m thinkin’.”

When I was a kid, we moved into a house that had a huge lilac tree out front. It was mostly rotten, and it needed to be taken down before it fell. It took a while, but eventually, it was gone.

Mostly. A couple years later, little lilac babies popped out of the ground in its place. My mom was determined to get rid of them, because she'd planted a beautiful flower garden there, and the lilac trees would overshadow and kill the whole garden. I insisted on saving at least a few saplings. She said fine, but I had to dig them out and put them in pots myself.

So, I did. I spent days digging little lilac bushes out of the ground and putting them into pots. Some couldn't be saved, but some could. When all was said and done, I had five brand-new lilac saplings. Seven or eight years old, and it was my absolute pride and joy.

Three died due to sun scorching, severe drought that no amount of watering could save, and perhaps just being moved from their place in the ground. But two survived, and I was awfully proud of them! I'd go out and talk to them every single day. I watered them by hand and made sure they were fertilized properly. I learned all about their favored environments, and I was determined to make sure they lived.

One of my mom's friends saw what I was doing with the lilacs. She asked if she could have one to put in her backyard, and I agreed on the condition that she take very, very good care of it.

It's now fucking enormous. I'm talking ten feet tall and bursting with beautiful purple flowers every spring. My mom still gets updates each year as they start to bloom, which she forwards to me. And all I can think is, "That's my friend! Thriving some twenty years on, there it is."

The other tree nearly died, too. It lived in a pot for far, far too long. I wanted to plant it somewhere in my parents' yard, but my mom was reluctant. Eventually, we agreed to put it in the far back garden. It grew okay for many years, despite the shade, but in all these years, it's never bloomed.

Last year, the massive tree casting massive shadows over the lilac and the garden cracked in half and fell. It tumbled into the garden, crushing part of the nearby shed and destroying a few plants beneath it.

It missed my lilac by inches.

The clean-up is long done. The rest of the tree has been cut down, and my lilac has full sunlight for the first time in fifteen years. It won't bloom this year, I know. But it's got new shoots up. It's taller than ever. I spent half an hour a few weeks ago praising it for surviving all this time, dreaming about its future and telling it how I believe it'll become the tall beauty it's always been meant to be.

I think next year, I'll see flowers.

The Fresh Five: American Cream, Dark Dark Dark, True Green, Sweet Looks, and DERECHO Rhythm Section

For the Fresh Five we pick out five great new(ish) jams that we’re currently obsessing over. All of these songs come from local (Minnesota) bands/artists. Presents by American Cream Band Every American Cream Band record is a joy in its own unique way and this year’s Presents is no exception. The new record is an eclectic blend of krautrock, exotica, and jazz. “Royal Tears” is an excellent…
