Tropical fruit granola, anyone? I dried all the fruits myself: papaya, pineapple, banana, mango, and coconut.

Doing a few little house projects this week...

My most magnificent achievement so far today was folding and putting away all the laundry that has been sitting in the basket for at least three weeks...

Fermenting bananas to make syrup...

I made vegan MAJADO for breakfast... So freakin' good. Mash up a boiled plantain banana. Add some fresh herbs, some spices, some hot sauce, and a ton of fresh vegetables and you have yourself a fantastic breakfast.

Banana chips are my kryptonite. I cannot stop eating them. Someone, please come and take this bowl off my desk.

The best lunch is when you don't have to do anything...

Hummus with bok choy leaves, carrots, cucumber and yellow pepper slices. Couldn't ask for more, really...

I also love to see the iguanas sitting in the trees around my garden.

My handsome feline prince, Tyke, is asleep on my desk with his tongue hanging out. He just turned 11 years old and is still purring his way into my heart.

The cats are hiding under the bed, anxious and scared. We're in lockdown together to keep everyone safe while everyone around us lets off fireworks from their backyards and in the street. I have CBD oil on hand if any of them freaks out, but so far they're all okay. I fucking hate fireworks.

Dear 2024: Thank you for all the amazing fresh tropical fruit you gave me to work with this year. I'm grateful for all of it. See you in the garden for more of the same in 2025.

When your mango vinegar fermentation goes terribly, horribly, disgustingly, fascinatingly, and colorfully all kinds of wrong.

Okay, we're gonna try it again. Thankfully, it's mango season so there's no shortage of fruit to make vinegar which will go into a fermented hot sauce.
