Did You See the Unique Cloud Formation?

Peace Cloud

Did anyone else see this unique cloud formation drifting over the Friday afternoon sky? In honor of the UN’s International Day of Peace, I would think.

You didn’t see it?…

Well, you should have been here…

No I wasn’t smoking anything!

OK, maybe it was a figment of my imagination.

Yes, that’s it, a figment of my imagination, channeled through Photoshop…

And then with the magic of WordPress sent on to you.

May peace be with you.

POD ~ Banana Blossom

Banana Bloosom

A bloom on one of the many banana trees in our garden.

Banana hearts or blossoms are used as a vegetable in South Asian and Southeast Asian cuisine, either raw in a fresh salad or steamed with dips or cooked in soups, curries and fried foods. The flavor resembles that of artichoke. As with artichokes, both the fleshy part of the bracts and the heart are edible.

My Tropical Garden Prints Project is a portfolio of over two dozen images from our garden.
