I made it just in time (I hope) for the yummy mummies‘s Fam Pic this month. I have been “experimenting” in our small garden and have been attempting to grow edible stuff. So far I have harvested some bok choi (variety of chinese cabbage) and now my chillis are ready for re-planting.

I started growing them in planters that are really meant for border flowering plants. But due to lack of space (and lack of patience and skills), the planters served my purpose to grow the seedlings.

When they were big enough for smaller pots, my 3-year old boy helped in digging them up by hand careful not to damage the roots. We transferred them to pots that fit on the window sill in our kitchen.

Here is a shot of the first chilli fruit I “harvested” two weeks ago. They’re very productive now and soon I’ll have more than I need for a suka’ng maanghang. But what we’re really looking forward to is to cook some proper chicken tinola with fresh sili leaves!
