First sign of Autumn 2011, 秋天在轉角


Last Saturday, when we were out to the many garage sales around, saw this tree with leaves telling us that cold weather is close (see the tree on the right). The temperature is also beginning to tell us that the dreaded cold days are coming. Daytime high for these few days is around 60 F.

Maintaining the blog

I have to admit that the time for maintaining my blog has been mostly taken over by Facebook. Seeing these workers at the Chicago Botanic Garden doing the maintenance, soaked in the water get me thinking again about their dedication to the work, and my initial aim of blogging. back to work.

Roadside Parking


这样子停法都有办法“进”和“出”,真佩服这些车主!

嘻嘻,我是Elmo!

這只Elmo很可愛,無論您心情如何,它都是笑嘻嘻的對著你; 隨便擺一下,它的表情都是令你心情愉快!(只花一塊錢從yard sale帶回來的,超值!)

Jungle Hiking - Waterfall Glen

从地下抽水,感觉好接近大自然!

上个月初去了一趟‘踏青’,树叶開始茂盛,天气開始暖和,人们的活动開始增加...

走了几个小时要看瀑布,结果只是一个小小的瀑布!

就是这样过2009的圣诞节


圣诞节当天教会没节目,我们在吴弟兄家享用火锅。
谢谢他们一家和我们分享,使原本在北美蛮闷的圣诞节加添温暖。

汤料:“老干妈”负责!简单又好味。

吃完还有瓜子,感觉上,好像是过年。

My Patio Garden

我把这棵草莓移种在花盆,放在我小小的露台。只是不懂它还能活多久因为天气已经开始冷了。

之前种了青豆所以太慢种青椒,还长不到4寸就开花;大慨来不及长出来已冬天了!
旁边是parsley,煮Italy餐用的。


这几棵番茄蛮‘像话’,生了不少的番茄。




This is my first patio garden since I moved to first floor of the apartment. I like to plant vegetable. I love my mini patio. This summer I have planted some spinach mustard, pea, tomato, parsley and green pepper. But sayang this year's summer is not warm enough and it influenced the produce. My green pepper grow very slow because the temperature already dropping. Fall/autumn is here. Can't believe some of them are just 3 inches tall and already flowering. But my tomato grew well and produced many beautiful tomatoes after many many days of "hard work". I bought one strawberry plant from farmers market too. I hope it can survive for many more days or months.
知道夏天不长久所以特别的珍惜那短短的几个月阳光。
不要因为短暂才珍惜;请珍惜你身边所有的一切人与物,不要随便伤害他们/它们。

全新的体验





第一次种青豆,没想到也有收成,虽然不多但感到很满足,颗颗都是宝贝!
住在二楼,想种菜想得很,就是没有地方让我过种菜的隐。
还好有小小花盆让我这个夏天没有白白浪费上帝赐予的阳光。
