Another day, another homegrown sweet fruits harvested, from the tree to our table to our stomach.! But mannn, waiting for it are all worth it! This time I ate a portion of it because it is so sweet. But before I share that, lemme share first the other plants we have in the yard. Also, Mama planted a new plant in a small pot, just Okra and Tomato because the old Okra we had before are all gone now. Mama cut the last tree of Okra and seriously, she harvested a lot of Okra in those trees and she's so grateful for them. But its time to plant a new one again, the young and pretty.
Here's the new plant. The tall plant is the Okra while the other one is the tomato. They are still a baby so Mama has no plan to move them yet. For now, she will keep them there and let it grow. We're hoping that it can grow healthily and can give us good produce later on. Ahh, the seeds used in there was from the vegetable we bought in the market. Mama just throw their seeds in one pot and voila...awesome no? Hehe
Next is this, it was growing in the other side if our yard. And this is that kind of plant that is really so hard to tell coz it has a lot of katulad or it has similar leaves to some other plants, this one looks like a squash but mama said it is not a squash. It could be bottle gourd or whatever gourd it is. Maybe we'll learn more once it began to bloom?
Next is the Gabi or Taro, we have more of them now but I only took photos of this particular side. But there's more. Mama is just letting it grow, soon she can finally harvest them and she has mature Coconut somewhere so Ginataang Gabi would be the best recipe for this! But I just notice its leaves, it looks pretty and unique (✿^‿^)
And here's our Lukban...we seriously have a lot of them rn, the ground is full of them now. Sadly, we can't eat it because it is too dry. Like what's the problem here, why it becomes too dry? These four here fall to the ground this morning. It is so windy here that some of them maybe snap. Mama only pick four and I think they are all ready, but, they are really dry. What's the best to do here (〒﹏〒), what can we do to save them?
Moving on to our Papaya, fresh from the yard! It is one of the Papaya tree in our yard and Mama just open the last ripe papaya today. While we open the other one here the other day. But on the first Papaya, I actually couldn't try it coz Mama said it is a bit bland, not that sweet she said. So I really don't like a bland papaya, I want the sweet and juicy ones. ┐(‘～`;)┌
And then today, she finally open the last one and Mama said it is still bland, not sweet, and kinda sour too, but when I tasted it -it is so good! Actually! I think Mama's just saying it so that she don't have to share some to me ಠ﹏ಠ, just kidding, lol, there's no way ƪ(‾.‾“)┐. I enjoyed every bit of it. And of course, I sprinkled salt in it because seriously, the sweetness got more enhanced when it sprinkled with salt. Its a must try guys. Tell me if you try it, you can also try salt with apple, guava, orange, and watermelon (⌐■-■)
