Cocoa Tree

This is one of the cocoa trees from my parents property back home. DH wanted to grow one inside our house. I'm not sure if it will fit. We probably have to keep cutting the new growth to make it fit however, will it fruit? This is organic and nothing had done to make it grow shorter. We don't even know where to get the seed to grow from...lol. (He wanted to make our own chocolate.)

You can also see sugar cane and papaya tree in the picture if you know what they look like.

Have Fun.

Wow I wish we could grow that here where I live. The houses here are just to close with no yard space. Great photo too..

Thanks for all the comments. PJ thanks, but I think customs will not let you send those out. I can also ask my cousin to sneak some into his luggage. Thanks for the offer, I'll keep that in mind.

Paksiw & Strawberry Banana Smoothie

Image
This is my FTF entry for this week. Paksiw (sour broth) frozen baby bonito (tulingan). I settled for frozen ones, because this is very hard to find in my area. Always eaten with ton of rice...lol I don't have any other vegetables to mix with it but the pepper. I was lazy to go out (shopping) with the heat we are having. And for dessert; strawberry banana smoothie. I was weeding my vegetable garden today and I was sweating a lot. What a nice drink to have! Very filling (sweet) and refreshing after soaking under a hot sun. For more FTF images, just follow the image below.

Mango Float

Image
They are in season now a days. I am talking about mostly any fruits. Here is my version of mango float that similar Filipino goes gaga about. Like I mentioned in my previous post, the sugar in this recipe is the killer. I can have this maybe once a year and I still prefer just plain mango anytime. This one was taken after a few hours in the freezer. You can see the cream and milk mixture are still runny. This one is taken the next day, when frozen. It turns out that DH love it. The only complaint he got was the taste is not even. He still wanted to make ice cream with the same ingredients. I can't wait to see how it would taste.
