From My Vegetable Garden

This is my very first harvest in my garden this year...in August? yes, I am not very happy about it either. I should be in the end of harvesting season already. However, I am still happy because I can have some fresh veggies that I love, even though there are too little of it.

Some type of squash, okra/lady fingers, sitaw/long/string/yard beans with shrimps. This shellfish thing will bring me to hell...argh.


Below is my DD showing how long some of my sitaw are. All natural soil, the only difference from last year was food scraps from my kitchen mixed with the soil.


You will find some of the pictures in my other blogs. No, I do not copy it, I own them both...just to clarify if you find the same pictures somewhere...:))

@ Willa, I love gardening because I can plant what ever I like. Yes, I agree with tomatoes, they grow like weeds...lol.

@ Luna, don't get me wrong I love seafood and shellfish the most. But according to the bible they are bad (bottom feeder with no scales all over)...he he he

Awww. I love this post! I've been wanting to grow our own veggies at our backyard. We haven't had the whole area renovated yet so for now, we only have ampalaya and chili peppers.

This made me want to pursue my dream of growing our own veggies at home. Thanks for sharing! :)

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.

Like the title says, this is my second batch of LeAnn Ralph 2 hours cinnamon rolls. I made this over the weekend not knowing my in laws are coming. Yes, for the very first time, they tasted it. My mother in law, of course never touched it, and scold my husband that what he is eating is bad (we knew it). He did not argue because he knew that his mother enjoy arguing about anything. This is from LeAnn Ralph cookbook "Rural Route 2 Cookbook", thank you so much for sharing this recipe with the public. Just like she said, my family expect it from me...lol. Did I mention that everyone loves it, except for my mother in law? My sister in law cannot believe I made it from scratch, and she asked me for the recipe. She will try making it, she said. Homemade Cinnamon Rolls Recipe from LeAnn Ralph If I’ve heard it once, I’ve heard it a dozen times: “Make homemade cinnamon rolls? From scratch? Are you crazy?
