#inktober2021 - Day 27 -#inktober2021 - Day 26 -Feel a bit strange as an Chinese person reading this novel by Esme Weijun Wang who is a Taiwanese American. The character, David is white, his wife and Daisy is Taiwanese. I can identify with both. David has mental health problems and commits suicide. A strange and somewhat dark story but does draw me to finish it though not my cup of tea.#inktober2021 - Day 25 -Home brewed kombucha - strawberry and ginger. I prefer ginger.#inktober2021 - Day 24 -Good morning! A cool rainy day but there’s always something to smile about in the greenhouse. The little Cyclamen that self seeded from the mother plant is in bloom. More harvest of bitter melon and lettuce. The cool weather is slowing the bitter melon growth but the lettuce is loving it.Raindrops on the window. A cool cloudy and very windy day. A good day to stay put and cosy up to the frying pan. I stir fried a little pumpkin with a pepper and some cabbage thrown in for lunch. The greenhouse was cosy and did get up to 20°C momentarily at noon. It is sitting at 12.7C at almost 6 pm. How quickly the temperature plunges without the sun. I still have an amazing number of bitter melons, a few cucumbers and moderate crop of tomatoes. My winter crops of lettuce, spinach and kale are in. I’ve thrown in some broccoli and cabbage for fun - just to see what is possible. I’m going to see if I can over winter 2 peppers in the greenhouse and one in the house.#inktober2021 - Day 23 -#inktober2021 - Day 22 -Instagram
