French toast with bendi (okra/ladyfingers) as breakfast again today.

Since I have 4 unit of harvested organic bendi (okra/ladyfingers), I decided to make French toast as my fast breakfast today. After first attempt making it last 31 December 2018 [1].

Taking a bite off my bendi (okra/ladyfingers) French toast.

The pretty and huge look of my apple mint leaves today.

I am really happy seeing the healthy growth of both my apple mint and spearmint. My spearmint plant still in recovery process due to caterpillar attack last 25 December 2018 [1].

One of the leaf is almost 6 cm long.

A type of Caladium plant that grow by itself at home.

My caladium grow by itself at home. I have put it in a container. Despite that time I am not sure what kind of plant it is. That is what I always do. Leave and care for the unknown plant to grow bigger. Before I make decision to keep or to make it compost for other plants.

Worth the effort. As it turned out to be quite pretty plant.
It is a type of keladi (yam/taro) plant. But ornamental type.

The caladium that I have taken care of.

Caladium × hortulanum [2].

For the picture above, the caladium that I have taken care of is type caladium x×hortulanum.

The look of pisang 40 hari (banana fruits) today.

One of my work colleague manage to harvest his pisang 40 hari (banana fruits) yesterday.

I told him that if he give me one sikat/sisir from 8 of his pisang 40 hari (banana fruits) , I can make banana cake and give half of it to him. As another half is my wage service to process the given banana fruits.

One unit banana weigh 97 gm.

Still 26 gm less than my pisang lemak manis harvested last 7 September 2018 [1]. Which is 123 gm per unit [1].

Total weight of 1 sisir/sikat of 13 unit bananas is 1,242 gm.

Harvesting 2 unit of organic bendi (okra/ladyfinger) today.

I get to harvest 2 unit of organic bendi (okra/ladyfinger) today. It is from 2 separate plants, out of 9 plants that being planted last 29 September 2018 [1].

The pretty look of my bendi (okra/ladyfinger).

Reason why it is very productive: I always put earthworms that I find in its container.

My review on personal wand massager of mine.

I choose this personal wand massager since I already have my UFO shaped massager. Plus, this one can be charged up using USB. And its slim design makes it easier for me to bring it back and forth to the lab without taking much space. Unlike my wide size UFO shaped massager.

My camouflage to use it in the work place to sooth my aching body.

To avoid misunderstanding when I use it. Also to protect the wand body from scratch.

Side by side comparison between my UFO shaped massager with personal wand massager.

Organic longan brazil harvest today.

Since there is a lot of longan brazil fruits on its tree, I decided to harvest them today. Manage to get 71 units. But give away 9 of them. Basically 62 units weigh 1,484 gm. Average 23 gm per fruit. The best part of this longan brazil tree is it bear fruits through out all year. Most of time, unable to taste it as already devoured by others since it is planted in public area.
This is the first harvest for this year, second day of 2019.

This weigh 28 gm.

The peeled look. Very juicy and sweet.

Ants make hole in my sweet organic Solo type papaya.

I have harvest this organic Solo type papaya last Sunday [1]. Today, I saw a hole made by ants on it. For me, this is a proof that my organic papaya is free from chemical pesticide. As ants able make hole on it to eat it up.

The hole made by ants.

Overall look of the hole on my organic Solo type papaya.

This organic Solo type papaya of mine is around 1.4 kg.

My review on my back massager device.

Since I am now having frequent body ache especially my waist, I look for good human massager substitute. As Ogawa massage chair like iCuddle is too much for my wallet, I look for alternative and portable solution [1]. Since I do move around very much for work. Even the Ogawa Mobile Shiatsu Lite is expensive for my wallet [2].
