Mama woke up a bit late, so I was the first to visit her garden today -ahhh, wrong, it's actually our cats's. I'm the seventh, I think, who came here, then Mama came last, lol. There are times that Mama sleeps really late, she said she can't sleep. But I teased her that it's actually because she doesn't stop watching her favorite ghost stories on YT, that is why. But she said she really just can't sleep. Maybe she's thinking a lot of things at night, that's why she can't really sleep. There are times too that I experienced the same. It only happened when there were a lot of thoughts in my head. And being the imaginative one - mostly just some imagination that can make me feel good— really gave me a hard time sleeping. So I avoid doing that now.
Anyways, as I look around the yard, I noticed the old guard house next door without a roof anymore. I asked Mama who's already awake that time -what happened there. She said someone came there last night, the one who also work there, remove all the roofs for some reason. She also asked why at night? Because of that our dogs barked nonstop because of the noises coming in there. I actually was super annoyed that time, I think it was 6:40 pm when it happened. Aigoooo
I also noticed that Mama's Alugbati's growing really fast, I mean those stems she already cut to pick young Alugbati to mix in her vegetable dish is now sprouting again.
And because Mama has a lot of them left and right, it is really noticeable especially those that newly sprouted. I told her about the newly sprouted alugbati and she said, she'll have green veggies again to cook for lunch. Hehe. She's excited yeah.
Here's the other near the stonewall. They looks much healthier though, maybe because the soil here is in a good condition.
And look at this chili pepper, this one's much looks brighter and seriously, it is soooo green. Like you can already tell how healthy it is growing, beautifully and really fast.
On the other hand, the chili peppers near Mama's house is also doing great. Look at all those tiny but really deadly chili. They're small but they can set your tongue with fire. Hahaha. But they are really good in a vinegar, you know, soaking them in a vinegar for a long time. It's best with any dried or fried fish.
And here's a cute nut sized guava fruits, they're still a baby as you can see but they're super cute no? Haha. This one is from the young guava tree we have. The older one had big guavas now. But sadly I don't eat guavas anymore. But when I was a kid, I can eat a bunch of this and i'll never get tired of them. I can eat them freshly pick on top of the guava tree, it's perfect with salt; ehe
And let me also share this plant alone in this side of a stonewall. Like, it really grows here and it even bloom a flower. What a cutie!
And please say Hi to this little fella here. I shared an army of grasshoppers before and I think they go on their seperate ways already haha. This one's alone in this money tree plant. And his color is darker green bow compare before they're a little brown? Light brown I mean.
By the way guys, mama is growing another papaya tree here. It's near the garden. So this is how a young papaya should like like right?
This ones just sprout near the money tree in a pot. I asked about this to mama and she said it is a papaya, thin version, like hello, they look different. Is it really? What do you think guys? I think mama is just teasing me about it because I am not that familiar with any plants out there. So, to make sure, I look at it using google lens -and apparently, it is really a papaya tree. But why it is so thin? It is so different to the one Growing papaya near the garden (◡ ω ◡).
