How lovely, my kind of place there @x-rain, and those beautiful yellow raspberries! I’ve never tasted one before. You can make a raw jam with them: just mix with an equal amount of sugar and let it wilt. No bacteria can grow in 50% sugar, so there’s no need for preservatives. It’ll be delicious, no cooking needed, just be careful not to eat too much sugar in one go! That boy must be collecting them for jam!
Can you go fishing on that lake? Such beautiful photography, it looks so peaceful there!
Yeah, horses act very differently from buffalo. I find buffalo much more serious, while horses, and cows as well, are very playful, especially when they’re young. One time I was stunned when a baby cow my mum and dad had raised tried to play hide and seek behind trees with me when I visited. I couldn’t believe it, lol.
And those bamboo plants remind me of bamboo shoots you can cook too! And banana leaves for wrapping meals, I buy them here for nearly £3 per sheet, whereas you can just get them fresh from the garden there. I used to wrap my school meals in banana leaves, they taste so much better! :)
I have launched "no sugar, no bread, no rice, no potato" program, lol - I have access to a shared kitchen (at last) so I am experimenting. And thus a jam - it's for the next time :)
It is allowed. Fish is a good idea... I should ask how much fish is in those shops with reservoirs along the lake - might be quite cheap.
That's very environmentally friendly. I had banana leaves as plates somewhere - once, in an Indian restaurant in Malaysia... and somewhere else. I actually loved eating a banana flower with pad thai - they often serve it this way in Thailand.
Thank you!
