Sierra is soooo adorable. I can't believe you guys grow your own shiso! It's wonderful stuff. I quite love the refreshing taste of it. Your salad is beyootiful. And hey, Chuck Lai won the jackfruit!! :) Oh, I hate those giant tomato eaters (the worms, not the pup). Sierra is soooo adorable. I can’t believe you guys grow your own shiso! It’s wonderful stuff.

Heirloom tomatoes are a gift from above, no? I'm no gardener, but my old housemates were and they used to sprinkle a whole bunch of red pepper flakes (they'd buy a big bottle from the dollar store) around the tomatoes and veggies and the rabbits and possums stayed away.

I know how you felt...cos I used to have a lemon tree that doesn't bear any fruit until one day, a lemon appeared and i visited it daily to make sure it's growing well. Went a while few days and came back, the lemon was GONE! My brother in law plucked it off cos he needs lemon juice for his grilled fish! UGGHH!! p/s: Sierra is so adorable.

Nothing like a few varmints ruining a perfectly wonderful garden. Yummy salad though, and your dog children just keep getting cuter and cuter every time I see them! Darn those opossums anyway!
