[Doriana] Connections

[Doriana]

This is a connections-style puzzle. The setter gives three clues to places, people, or objects, and your job is to find out what they are and how they are connected.

- A work of art -- EDIT: The work of art is a "sculpture" made of mashed potatoes and spinach

RECAP

What we've discovered so far
- A work of art: The work of art is a "sculpture" made of mashed potatoes and spinach
- A girl's name: The name is a formerly popular name given to girls in the English speaking world, but no specific person with that name is relevant

Are all the things connected because...

- They represent examples of the same thing or word?

- They can be found one after the other, such as in a phrase?

You say that the sculpture is of roads and trees. Does it represent a place? A specific one? A real one? Would you dance there?

[trebor]

So you didn't like gymnastics, but you wanted to do it? Is it relevant why?

Is it relevant how old you were for any of the connections?

Did you come across the name in your work? When you were deciding what to name your child, if you have one? Tracing instances of it through your family tree? Is it relevant that it's a name that isn't as popular now? Is it an example of the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon?

[Doriana]

Did you make the connections at the same time, or years apart? Both - explore If the latter, do they represent changes that you recognized as you grew older? No, but growing older is relevant(ish)

[Balin]

Is the exercise a cartwheel?

[Doriana]

Rosemary? Yes!

[GalFisk]

So we have a mashed potato and spinach landscape made by you, practicing cartwheels done by you, the women's name Rosemary somehow connected to you, and there's more to it than just all of them being connected to you, correct?
Did the landscape and the cartwheels happen on the same day? Is the rosemary plant relevant at all? Imagination relevant? Playing?

[Doriana]

So we have a mashed potato and spinach landscape made by you, practicing cartwheels done by you, Correct the women's name Rosemary somehow connected to you, Well, rosemary the plant is more relevant than Rosemary the name and there's more to it than just all of them being connected to you, correct? Well, they're connected to me in a relevant way that has yet to be found out
Did the landscape and the cartwheels happen on the same day? No, but very close in time Is the rosemary plant relevant at all? Yes, but explore Imagination relevant? No Playing? Somewhat OTRT

Keep this question/answer from June 28 in mind:

RECAP/HINT

We've found out that practicing cartwheels, making "landscapes" out of mashed potatoes and spinach, and the song Scarborough Fair are relevant. These three things are connected to me, both as an adult and as a child. Left to find out: One more detail about Scarborough Fair, and the exact connection to me at different ages.

[Earnest]

We've found out that practicing cartwheels, making "landscapes" out of mashed potatoes and spinach, and the song Scarborough Fair are relevant --> is the connection the one of doing impossible things? Have you done such landscapes? Had someone else? If so as a child? With food on the dish? relevant? Is love relevant? Personal relationships? Is the song relevant for its text or as a song per se? I mean: is it relevant because it remembers something to you? Because it was the song of your wedding? Because someone used to sing it? Because it was the first song you learned to play? Someone sang it to you? Because it was released in a relevant year? Or maybe you sang it? You sang it to take the time? To perform the cartwheel (e.g. tempo or something along this lines)? (relevance as a song per se) or because something similar happened to you? e.g. in theater? or maybe someone asked you to do impossible things for the sake of love? Or you asked someone? (relevance for its lyrics/words)

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme relevant? Rosemary = remember me? Rosemary = a name? The girl's name? Is it connected to spinach somehow? Or the clue was only for guessing Scarborough Fair?

"landscapes" out of mashed potatoes and spinach --> relevant which landscapes? specific ones?
practicing cartwheels --> did you manage to do cartwheels as a child? To do it now as an adult? is falling relevant? Vitruvian man (strange question I know)? Do you teach to do cartwheels to someone else? Maybe to teach power of will? Relevant where did you practice cartwheels? Air the beach? On the sand? Competitions relevant? Music relevant?

exact connection to me at different ages. --> is the connection something that persist in your life (i.e. that was always with you/not abandon you)? Or maybe something that appeared at different stages of your life from time to time?

Since the other thing to guess is a girl's name, does this latter thing refer to your name? Does the name of the girl make the connection to you at different ages? Your daughter maybe? To be sure: the first name of the girl? The second name? Is she a real world girl? Someone connected to you? You? Maybe a composite name that remember all the three things found out?

[Doriana]

We've found out that practicing cartwheels, making "landscapes" out of mashed potatoes and spinach, and the song Scarborough Fair are relevant --> is the connection the one of doing impossible things? No Have you done such landscapes? Yes Had someone else? Irrel If so as a child? I used to make them as a child and I recently made one With food on the dish? Yes relevant? Not really Is love relevant? Personal relationships? No to these Is the song relevant for its text or as a song per se? As a song per se, but explore I mean: is it relevant because it remembers something to you? Because it was the song of your wedding? Because someone used to sing it? No to these Because it was the first song you learned to play? No, but OTRT Someone sang it to you? Because it was released in a relevant year? Or maybe you sang it? You sang it to take the time? To perform the cartwheel (e.g. tempo or something along this lines)? (relevance as a song per se) or because something similar happened to you? e.g. in theater? or maybe someone asked you to do impossible things for the sake of love? Or you asked someone? (relevance for its lyrics/words) No to all

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme relevant? Rosemary = remember me? Rosemary = a name? The girl's name? Is it connected to spinach somehow? Or the clue was only for guessing Scarborough Fair? It was just the clue, no further relevance

"landscapes" out of mashed potatoes and spinach --> relevant which landscapes? specific ones? Generic landscapes, irrel
practicing cartwheels --> did you manage to do cartwheels as a child? Yes To do it now as an adult? I'm working on it is falling relevant? Vitruvian man (strange question I know)? Do you teach to do cartwheels to someone else? Maybe to teach power of will? Relevant where did you practice cartwheels? Air the beach? On the sand? Competitions relevant? Music relevant? No/irrel to rest

exact connection to me at different ages. --> is the connection something that persist in your life (i.e. that was always with you/not abandon you)? No, quite the opposite! Or maybe something that appeared at different stages of your life from time to time? This is more OTRT

Since the other thing to guess is a girl's name, does this latter thing refer to your name? Does the name of the girl make the connection to you at different ages? Your daughter maybe? To be sure: the first name of the girl? The second name? Is she a real world girl? Someone connected to you? You? Maybe a composite name that remember all the three things found out? FA, the girl's name was Rosemary and referred to the word rosemary in Scarborough Fair

********SPOILER********

Thanks to the pandemic, I had more free time on my hands than usual, but also nowhere to go. In addition to making sourdough and banana bread, I also used the extra time to engage in some hobbies/activities I hadn't done since childhood (that being the relevant connection), namely
- making "sculptures" out of mashed potatoes and spinach, which I used to do in preschool
- practicing cartwheels in the backyard, and
- playing (simple songs on) the piano.

I'm proud to report that my cartwheels are as bad as they were 20 years ago - I still don't point my toes when I do them - and that I have mastered "Soft Kitty" on the piano. Currently working on "Scarborough Fair".

Nice hattrick, GalFisk, and thanks to everyone who played!

[JenBurdoo]

I love it!
