Hibiscus - gifted by my friend


Orange juice from my own oranges


Drinking every day - 3 oranges is all it takes. Well, honestly I like to eat them, but I have TMJ now and am not able to eat them. So have to go with the juice.

Beans (Chikkudu, Papdi) whatever you call it


This is supposed to be non-vine version of chikkudukaya (papdi) - Indian version of certain variety of beans. Getting too many of these beans now a days. They are very tasty though.

Butternut squash - mine again


I got this plant from someone who said it is a Zucchini. As it kept growing it turned out to be something. Well, a good one. This is my first time with butternut squash. Can't wait to cook with them - though am not sure what to. LOL.

Beerakaaya - versatile vegetable


This is one vegetable where nothing goes to waste. You can make pachadi (pickle) with the skin and the inside too. Curry with this vegetable is actually very taste.

What is this? Can anyone guess?


Not sure what this is? Is it a melon? Or is it a pumpkin? Is it a vege? Or is it a fruit?
Your guess might be better than mine :)

Bitter melon - Kakarakaya


I am getting so many of these, donno what to do with them. LOL.
