Okay. Hello, dear friends. Good morning. Such a beautiful, beautiful morning. Green. Everything green. And I just saw one comment today. How about backyard report? Of course. That makes me happy. I just, I'm not happy at all. But this makes me happy. To see my beautiful backyard makes me happy. So here is the walnut. Let me move it around a little bit. Yeah. This is the, this is the walnut tree. Let's go inside. And there is not very much harvest in this walnut because, because of the squirrels. Okay. So we have some figs and this is the little channel goes to my secret garden. That is olive, but we are not, we are not harvesting enough olives. Okay. Let me do the other way. So this one is the fig tree and we have figs from time to time and the sky is a little bit covered. It's just perfect. Ooh, looks like, oh, there is a rainbow. Oh, this makes me so happy. I want to cry. I want to cry. Oh, this makes me so happy. I had such a bad day. I mean, yeah. I'm having a bad, bad day. I'm having a bad, bad day. It's my time to get my way. I'm having a bad, bad day. If you take it personal, that's okay. Yeah. Okay. I will not stop being silly. I love that song. And this is olive and because it takes so much time and energy to make the olive, so we are not actually producing any olives. And this is, this must be a homage. Here. If I use my hand to touch it, my hand smell, smells roasted lamb. All this, this is a siren. Sometimes I am thinking a lot of time we spend so much energy. Oh, butterfly. We spend energy to do things that is ridiculous. Can I say it? Yeah. Sometimes we do things ridiculous because of a procedure, because of this and that. And it's really depressing when you think about it. But we should all have a sanctuary in our life. I think this backyard is one of my sanctuary to get myself coming back to, to normal sense, to the sense of, of normality, to the sense of that's okay. We have ridiculous things in life. We have ridiculous tasks in life. We have, yeah, we have, we have all these and that troubles in life. But one day in the middle of the night, my husband said, come see what we have. A few years ago, we planted this and we forgot about it. And it naturally grow up. Guava. This is a guava tree. And this one is a citrus plant. A citrus plant. I forgot whether it's a mandarin or tangerine or climbing time, something like it starting to, to harvest. And here, this is a, I think this is one of the king palm and it's dead. So we took one branch here and planted. Anyway, I forgot how the story goes. We did not have a seed for it. It must be one branch or something. And it just grow up like that. It's so fascinating, isn't it? It looks cool. And that is a Sichuan pepper. We have to, oh no, this is a laurel. This one is a laurel leaf. The laurel leaf for Apollo give laurel leaf to, to, to his beloved. And this one is Hortensia, Hortensia, the flower of Bodania. And it's, it's over. And we just took care of the bougainvillea here. And that red one. Okay. So that red one is Sichuan chili pepper, Sichuan pepper. Actually it's not from a pepper, but it's, it's a numb, spicy, and it's very, very delicious.

And this year apple is good. Look at it. Look at it. So beautiful. It makes me happy. Makes me happy. And another king palm. And that one is bougainvillea. And that one is avocado, never produced anything so far. And this one is plum. I made my plum jam. I made my lemon curd. My, I made my pâté de fruits, everything with, with this plum, because it's not very strong taste. And it has the pulp. It has the, the, the flesh, the texture. Wonderful. And this one is, you know it, pomelo. And this one is the lemon, lemon. And yeah, the passion fruit is invading our lemon, as you have seen. So the only thing we make it is we will eat it.

Whatever you do, if you are not happy with your outside experience, if someone treat you not right, or if you treat someone not right and you feel sorry, you regret, you regret. This place is the garden of forgiveness. We forgive everything that is wrong, that is unworthy. And we focus back to our life. Bye bye friends. I love you. I really do.
