The first thing I usually do upon reaching home after morning walk and breakfast is to sweep my porch area.
There was one morning when I noticed this ant which I have never seen before.
It was moving very slowly and I managed to take a few snapshots of it. I lightly swept it into the dust pan and drop it onto the grass by the road side.
Hubby's customer gave him some green mangoes, which I made into pickles.
I added a few crushed dried bird's eye chilies into the pickles.
Sharing some of my pet Betta fishes.
I no longer place plant cuttings in the fish bowls to make space for the fishes to swim in.
That morning's harvest from my garden.
Red, green okras and non spicy red chilies.
I had some left over fish head curry brought back from the restaurant which hubby and I couldn't finish. All I have to do was add in the okras and chilies harvested from my garden.
I added a small plate of deep fried tiny dried anchovies to the curry dish to make a simple yet satisfying dinner for 2 people.
Linking to Saturday's Critters.
But most of all, dear brothers,
do not swear either by heaven or earth or anything else;
just say a simple yes or no so that
you will not sin and be condemned for it.
(James 5:12, The Living Bible-TLB)
Great harvest :)

DeleteThat ant looks really big. You managed some great close ups
ReplyDeleteThank you, Adam. I hope that ant is not poisonous.
DeleteYou know how to fix anything!! A good variety today. And you have answered my question about the fish plants. The ant is really creepy looking. I bet he has strong jaws. He is, in fact, pretty terrifying.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ginny. Yes, I do hope the ant is not a poisonous one.
DeleteThe green mango pickles sound delicious! Love seeing your pretty Betta fish too! Happy weekend!

Thank you, Stacy. The red one loves to show off its big red fins.
DeleteHee hee - your title says dinner and your first pic is an insect. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHa ha..... readers will think I am eating insects.
DeleteThat ant looks quite big. Your addition of extra home grown veggies sure makes the curry even tastier!

DeleteMe encanta tu cosecha. Un beso.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa.
DeleteThe ant looks quite big. I love the green mangoes which you made into pickles, just by looking at it, I was actually drooling.

Pickles always make me drool. Lol!
DeleteLovely clicks....Those raw Mangoes looks so good pickled.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ruxana.
DeleteI like the look of the ant just as long as it isn't here biting me
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jo-Anne. I also hope that this ant is not a poisonous one.
DeleteThe peppers are beautiful... I like making another good meal out of restaurant leftovers by adding something of our own to make it a little different.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sallie. With the extra added into the left over, it usually turns out better and tastier.
DeleteAlways love the addition of anchovies! Yum! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI love fried anchovies but don't like the frying part. Lol!
DeleteI like the red colour betta fish
ReplyDeleteThank you, Libby. I love to watch this red one too.
DeleteThe best when you cook and have a satisfying meal.
ReplyDeleteYes, that is the most rewarding part.
