Meatballs & Brazilian Spinach For Dinner

These days we usually start our morning walk at about 6:15am or later if we overslept. Sometimes we get to see the moon, sometimes there was no moon to be seen. We are thankful for the street lights that lighted up the streets for us.

Lovely sunrise at 7:20am.

The following photos were from my garden, taken when I was watering my plants.
Eggplant flower.
(I can't remember the colour or type of eggplant).
Fully opened eggplant flower.
Hoping these flowers will turn into eggplants.

Home cooked dinner.
There was a packet of ready cooked frozen meatballs in the freezer which hubby bought in support of his friend's business.
These were big meatballs! There were 5 meatballs in the packet.
Blanched home grown Brazilian spinach and topped with leftover salted egg yolk from the previous day's dinner. We finished the mantis prawns but couldn't finished the leftover salted egg yolk, etc. because it was a bit salty for me.


"Salt is good for seasoning.
But if it loses its flavor, how do you make it salty again?
Flavorless salt is good neither for the soil nor for the manure pile.
It is thrown away.
Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand!"
(Luke 14:34-35, New Living Translation-NLT)

  1. I really envy you for the vegetables that you grown and your bountiful harvest! That's what I want to do once I get the chance to retire. LOL!

    1. Before I retire, I grow non edibles. Once I retired, I start to grow edibles because I have more time for gardening. Non edibles can only see but edibles can harvest and eat. Lol!

  4. Love those succulent and juicy meatballs. Does Brazilian spinach taste very different from the regular spinach?

  16. May the flower turn into brinjals. 🤞Do you need to wrap the brinjals to prevent birds from eating them?

    1. I didn't wrap the brinjals. So far the birds leave the brinjals alone.

  20. The colours in the sky are lovely. I love eggplant, or aubergine as we call them in the UK. I have never tried growing them though.

  22. I love spinach but I find it goes to seed before I can ever pick it, I grow chard instead which grows all year round. Keep safe, Diane
