I finally managed to take a picture of our Josie from the plane. This was on UniAir 1145 noon flight back to Taipei.
Bay leaves
The bay leaves are growing very happily in Taiwan. Why not dry the bay leaves and give them as gifts to my friends?
Foraging in the hills
Our favourite past time is to check out our land behind the house. We bought these parcels of land over the years and they are not all connected.
Found this three along a path, full of fruits. It’s a kind of pomelo or grape fruit.
Couldn’t resist the temptation. I picked a few home. They look so inviting hanging of the branches.
Now I know why there are still so many in the tree. There are too many seeds inside with very little flesh. To get a bit of fruit would take too much effort, especially when the flesh is neither sweet nor juicy.
Bug infested
My snake bean plants have been infested. Many beans are covered in brown things and on closer look, it’s gross. The brown things are actually bugs. Just the thought of it gives me goose bumps.
Just before harvest
Hello Green Island 綠島
The sunrise that I missed
Ping got up early this morning to catch the sunrise. Judging from the pictures it was a glorious morning.
Summer time is here
Going banana
There are still so many bananas left. What else can I make?
a bit burned I know but tastes good.
There is no way that the two of us could finish all these banana cakes, I made one 6-inch cake and about 12 muffins. Gave some to my neighbour Feng Ting.
Absolutely love this recipe. I will make more tomorrow.
It’s been a hard day’s work, and I been working like a dog
It’s been a hard day’s work, I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you I’ll find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright.
