Nasib the tomatoes….

So many photos but not so many words…

(Actually I malas nak menulis sebab tengah giat nak main Swipe Four on the phone sbb nak beat The Other Half’s score, hehehe.)

Layan aje lah ye gambar yang I took today.

Remember a few days ago the story about my home made sundried tomatoes….

Well, I made a second batch which took forever to dry under the sun because it hasn’t been that sunny the past week.

And then semalam, while it was drying nicely, guess what happened?

Miss 8 accidentally knocked it off the chair and everything fell onto the grass!!!!!!!

Tak terkata dah I masa tu bila tengok all my half dried tomatoes scattered on the grass…

Rasa nak nangis ada, rasa nak tergelak pun ada, rasa nak tarik2 rambut pun ada, hehehe….

Nampak sangatlah yang memang bukan rezeki I nak makan home made sundried tomatoes ni….

So, I dah malas, I made a new batch and dried them in the oven at 50C which took about 8 hours!

(tinggi lah bill electric I bulan ni, hahaha.)

The end result?

Jadilah jugak oven-dried tomatoes ni. I am going to put them in a jar filled with olive oil in the fridge.

Now, layan gambar our ‘ladang’ ye!

This is phlox which Miss 8 planted. I don’t know what the name is in Malay.

One of the roses.

Our watermelon plants growing ‘wild’ trying to conquer the driveway. Daun aje banyak, but buah sebijik pun takde lagi, citt!

Our habanero chillies growing slowly and steadily .

I said to The Other Half ynag I nak try buat pickled chillies guna habaneros ni. Adalah nanti yang terus masuk toilet with diarrhoea lepas makan chilli tu, hahaha.

The capsicum.

Lama jugak nak tunggu dia tukar warna ke merah ni.

Assortment of lettuces and basils and a lone ginger in between. Nasib baik ada jugak ruang untuk the ginger leaves come out. I have forgotten completely yg I tanam ginger kat situ, tu yang I pergi plant the lettuce on top of it, heeee….

Sape mata tajam, cuba lah cari the ginger, hehehehe…..

We are going somewhere in a few days time so The Other Half angkut all the pots and put them close to the main vege patch so he can set a timer for the watering. Tak lah mati kekeringan our plants bila kena tinggal nanti. Once dah balik nanti, we’ll put them back at the right places.

And our dinner tonite, nasi goreng cina pakai perencah adabi with ikan goreng and sambal kosong. I didn’t use any veges from the garden though sebab malas nak petik, heeeee…..

Letak udang and telur in the nasi goreng, terus jadi tambah sedap .
