coming to fruition

from our (neighbors') yards.


okra flower and fruit. from jovitt's yard. not a lot of people like okra because of the slimy goo inside. just think this way: good for my intestines, good for my skin, vitamins and minerals, kaboom!



green bananas. a.k.a. bulungan variety. from the vacant lot on our right. did you know we have lots and lots of banana varieties in the Philippines? the bulungan banana remains green even when ripe. this used to be my favorite variety when i was a kid. now my favorite is the banana-cue variety. just love all that caramelized sugarrrr.




ze golden coconut. from tita mary's yard. these golden globes are so low lying i can almost reach them. dunno if they can be eaten or if they are just for display. i will ask tita mary tomorrow.
