Thought I’d start off with some eye candy. This is Alex, my daughter’s brother-in-law, currently at the farm, with a bird he was able to pick up.
Pretty dove!

The only real news this week is that the chickens finally discovered the lower field and have gone there to graze. I didn’t get a picture.

I went walking to my neighbors up the hill and had to turn back. Look what happened to their road!

And for the only other photo from the week.
Guess what! I had no idea so I don’t expect you to. This is “suki” (soo-kee) – braided tobacco that is cut up and rolled in a piece of newspaper to be smoked. Hard to imagine, isn’t it.

Happy week, everybody!

I’m sure he has no trouble picking up birds, no trouble at all…
That tobacco thing is amazing 🙂
I thought you would like that tobacco. 🙂
Where have you been? Oy! I just realized – I had magnificent LOLO BUNS (buns with coconut cream) last weekend … I should have taken a photo and put it in here for you. oh well. If they ever come around again…. You must post some cake to make up for my oversight.
Just to look at, not to put in my pipe 😉
What?! You’ve deprived me of CAKE?!? You’ve go some making up to do, Missus!
Wow that is pretty dove … that is good experience,Where the picture take a place?
Hello, new friend Obat! The picture was taken on my porch. I live on Sigatoka Valley Road in Fiji.
I really enjoyed this edition to the blog. Your daughter’s brother-in-law must be pretty skilled to catch this bird. It didn’t look injured, so he must have been fleet-of-foot. It looked like the high water did a lot of damage to the road, and it will take a while to repair. I really liked the basket. It reminded me of a snake basket. Hope you are doing well. We are beginning spring her with lots of rain, cool weather and beautiful wheat. LG.
