No food photos, only plants

Every weekend, our spare time will be spent in the garden. Dah about 4 or 5 Saturdays we all tak pergi the painting class for Miss 11. So, our Saturdays nowadays memang were spent just chilling at home and in the garden.

Lagilah dah nak dekat2 Christmas ni kan, memang busy gilers the shopping centres masa weekend with people on their last minute gift buying spree. That’s why lagi best spend time at home, membusykan diri in the garden Smile. And lagi best bila ada partner sama2 busy kat garden. Boleh borak2 bergossip sambil berkebun, hehehe.

Pagi tadi at Sunday school, I bawak timun, zucchinis and daun limau purut from the garden untuk sedekah ke orang. Kalau nak makan we all aje, memang too much lah. Alhamdulillah, kali ni menjadi jugak sayur2an yg we all tanam. Dapatlah jugak bersedekah ke orang.

Since weekend ni weekend berkebun, layan lah ye some photos of the kebun.

I have no idea why this rose ada 2 colours, but cantik jugak macam ni kan Smile.

The roses banyak yg the petals a bit tak cantik looking macam ni. They don’t look ‘fresh’, they look a bit sunburnt.

This 2 sunflowers are form the same plant, pokok dia so tiny but dah berbunga so bunga dia pun so tiny lah.

This one is triple the size of the above sunflowers but still not a giant one. The Other Half tak sabar nak tunggu dia kering so bolehlah dia makan the sunflower seeds aka kuaci, hehehe.

Some of the zucchinis we harvested. Yang ini saiz dia kecik aje sebab sempat petik sebelum di amembesar bagai johan Smile. I masak for tonite’s dinner, just pan fried them in butter n olive oil, including the flowers sekali.

Some of our growing apples. Still hijau lagi, can’t wait for them to ripen.

The lone capsicum on one of the capsicum plants.

Yeay, my pokok cili dah berbuah. Lepas ni boleh lah buat jeruk cili lagi.

Miss 7’s bush bean plant. Dah banyak jugak beans yang besar2. She’s been eating them raw everyday. Hari2 dia keluar tengok bean plant dia and petik yg besar and makan tang tu jugak, hehehe.

Bila I cerita kat my Mak about all the tanaman yang dah berbuah, dia kata, kalau lah dekat boleh naik bas, dah lama dia datang rumah I tolong petik and makan, hahahaha….

My chili, tomato, belum lagi berbuah. My sunflower pun belum berbunga. Yg ada bunga skrg ni roses tuan rumah n my portulaca. Tgh menunggu dgn penuh kesabaran. Tiap2 hari I gi check.

One question, pokok kesum you, you tanam under direct sun atau bawah shade ke apa. Memula my kesum segar. Lepas tu I gi long weekend dia kering tp tak mati. Skrg ni dia tumbuh lagi byk daun, tp daun nya tak hijau segar. You letak baja tak?

Nora,
Tomato tu we all tanam as soo as we moved here, tu yg dah berbuah lama :-). Chillies tu pun baru about a week or 2 kot berbuah.
Kesum I letak under part shade or else memang dia cepat kering. I cuma bagi seasol aje.

Patin,
Mat Saleh's chefs selalu suka masak zucchini flowers ni. Tu yg I saje tunjuk rupa dia :-).
Masa I kat rumah sewa, pun tanam semua dlm pots, hehehe

Zany,
Masa Summer ni bolehlah I tayang my kebun sbb cantik hijau aje :-)

Sue,
Wah, sampai mimpi tanam pokok apple tu dah kira best lah kan :-)

Dinas,
Ha'ah, rasa dia ok lah makan beans mentah tu, still sweet :-). Nasib baik dia suka makan beans yg dia tanam tu! :-)

Yaz,
Bila I tengok balik N3 yg I publish tu, baru lah I perasan yg I terdelete gambar capsicum. I dah edit balik :-)

Zawani,
Memang seronok and tak sabar kan nak menunggu tanaman kita berbuah. We all dulu pun hari2 check our plants :-)

Akeem,
Ha'ah, sebab kononnya dia yg tanam so dia sukalah makan :-). Memang sebijik mcm kita makan petai belalang dulu lah, tak rasa apa2 sgt kan :-)

Anis,
Nanti lah I nak kena buat garden party 1 day kan. Boleh orang datang petik buah kat garden I, hehehe

I malas nak tanam carrot padahal semua orang kata carrot tu paling senang tanam.
We all pun slalu makan carrot mentah2 esp baby carrots :-)
