Yesterday my dad asked if I'd heard about the ginormous emerald found in North Carolina that is, as Time magazine reported, "famous for its emeralds." SIDEBAR: WTF? How can you farm gemstones? Possibly I am newly obsessed with the idea of farming. At 65 carats, it is being called the largest emerald ever cut in North America. It will be cut in the style of Catherine the Great's famous emerald brooch, which was sold at Christie's in April for $1,650,500. Ah, to be rich. I guess I should have been born on an emerald farm.
