September 28, 2015

Jayanthi and Anand came over the other day from Thalathuoya bringing some fruit that looks and tastes like sour cherries, although that is not what it is.  We made a pie from it which tastes great even though it is a little sloppy.

Jayanthi with the fruit.

Just like a clump of cherries.

Enough for a pie.  The long green things are some very sour juicy fruit.  They made a great addition to a smoothy.

The pie.  It is supposed to be latticed, but I did not weave the strips, so half of them sunk.  Tastes great though.

Full supermoon last night.  The power went off about midnight.  I woke up around 0130 and couldn't get back to sleep, so I went outside to see the supermoon and maybe some of the eclipse.  The moon didn't look any different than it does on any full moon day and we were out of range for the eclipse.  None the less, the moon was very bright.  With all the lights off because of the power outage, it was like a spotlight in the sky.  There were a few clouds as well.  Just enough to create a lovely corona around the moon.  Beautiful!

The advent of the full moon seems to have enlivened the frogs.  I remove at least one a night.  Patches finds them.  Of course, she likes to make them jump and chase them.  Either that or they are taking a bath in her water dish.  I trap them and put them outside just for them to come back in again the next night.  Its a frog's life.
