yummy food

Every year when we get Meyer lemons, we mix the lemon juice with strawberries and sugar to make a lemon-strawberry topping. Then we pour the strawberries with lemon juice over angel food cake to make a yummy dessert. It's delicious (:






Logan and I went to Chinatown. We found an imported fruit called Starfruit which came from Taiwan. It's best season is in late spring/ early summer. It has a subtle sourness to the taste but it is still quite sweet. Most of all, it looks very pretty when you cut it into slices.

peach and plum

During early March, I looked out of the window every morning from my seat in the kitchen. The peach tree has been blooming nicely with pink blossoms. Hopefully this year the squirrels will leave my peaches alone.






The plum tree is growing quite tall now. When the white blossoms pop up on the branches, they look like popcorn glued on the tree. It is quite funny-looking. We will try to update the peaches and plums for you all.
