Day 10 #augustbreak2022It has risen, flatten and risen again. Now I’m about to flatten it again into loaves so they can rise again.Stir fry of bitter melon and Chinese mustard greens. I do love bitter.Day 9 #augustbreak2022Day 8 #augustbreak2022. FAVOURITE TASTE - cappuccino frozen yogurt with raspberries.A little harvest of bitter melon, cucumber, peppers and Egyptian walking onions.My morning excitement. The beginning of a slipper gourd.View at the top. The rooftop garden on the shed.Day 7 #augustbreak2022 BENEATH MY FEET - marigolds and strawberries.A lovely sunny afternoon after a grey cool day of yesterday. My 2 hanging bougainvilleas are finally showing some reddish flower buds. I’ve learned they will not set flowers if they get too much water. Meanwhile in the greenhouse I have one ripe Black Krim tomato. It got a bit smashed when I dropped it in the kitchen. And it is cucumber season. So many are coming now as is with the bitter melons. The peppers are doing their bit, too. I am very happy with how productive the greenhouse has been this second year. I’m not too keen on the early Red Alert tomatoes I had. Not sweet or delicious. Will not do again in spring. The snow peas were a success. I might seed a few again soon to see how they perform now into late autumn. I still have celery and Swiss Chard growing from spring. I’ve been harvesting handfuls to add to stir fries. I’m sure they will keep going into late fall.Instagram

THIEVES AND NASTINESS
