Isn't this seed just about the ugliest thing you can imagine? It lives inside the "husk" at the core of a mango... the bit you chew on, scrape the fruit off, etc., isn't the seed but contains the seed. You have to pry it open like an oyster.
This seed got a little mungled up - you can see at the bottom it's a little black and chewed-looking - from my knife-prying attempts... if it hasn't sprouted in a couple of weeks, I will have to start over with a new mango. But like the title says, I'm optimistic. :-)
I am so grateful for this bounty of snowsuits, though I sometimes feel ungrateful because they take up so much space when it's NOT snowy. I am making up for it by Freecycling at least 3 snowsuits we don't need.
I hope you can see what I mean by bounty of snowsuits.
Supper tonight:
Salmon / spinach pie of some sort.
Formerly frozen peas
I dunno what else... I wish we had pea soup mix but I don't think we do. Feeling lazy.
We are having a lazy day today after a busy yesterday at the Royal Winter Fair, which completely knocked me out... I slept from 11 to 8 and could have slept for three more hours, easily...
