What did you do in the garden today?

I mentioned earlier that I processed a lot of my home-grown Tilapias and came across this French lady's coconut fish recipe. It gave me a lot of ideas, and I improvised with what I had at home. I used chili pepper vinegar instead of lime and Vietnamese fish sauce instead of salt. I also used a bunch of my home grown 4-inch sweet Marconi red peppers in place of red bell pepper, and I used green onions instead of cilantro. I liked it so much I am going to keep this recipe as a makeshift heirloom recipe.

I chopped up a very large papaya that grew wild next to my fish tank. It tasted kind of bland, so I sprinkle sugar on each layer as I was putting the chop pieces in a container and then at the end, I mixed it in a bowl. Adding sugar makes a big difference for this type of papaya. Sugar turned an average tasting papaya into a high quality one.

I did some cleaning up on the garden area. Found a bunch of corn kernels and cobs with kernels still intact. I'll probably use those for corn this year.

Nothing but cold in the forecast. Even the long range forecast.

Same here... a couple of really cold days coming up. Lows in the single digits, highs in the low teens. Brrrrr!

My latest interest is meat rabbits. Planning future breedings for tri color. Genetics has always been my hobby. Might as well be pretty as well as practical.

How are they doing?

Had to put 2 down. 4 remain, one of which might be mildly lame/limpy for life, but that's better than dead. So, so far....
