I am reading The Fragrance Shed by a Violet - just about twenty five pages in and am riveted!
The weekend was spent travelling (as usual) out of Colombo. Got back on Sunday. Now to a hectic new week.
The long tube like vegetable is drumsticks (called Murunga here). This is one of the crops grown by us on this property.
Fascinating tree and vegetable! How do you cook it?

My It's Monday, What Are You Reading
Fiercombe Manor looks good. I've never heard of Murunga. Can you compare it to something else? Enjoy your week!
ReplyDeleteit's so fascinating to me the different covers used for the same books! like Barracuda - the cover for my copy is completely different. Wonder why publishers do that?!?
ReplyDeleteWhat a great week for book arrivals for you! You have some interesting books awaiting you.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to figure out your last picture of drumsticks. It feels as if I'm looking down from the sky into a forest of skinny trees. Very interesting!
ReplyDeleteWhile We're Far Apart looks beautiful! I hope the story is as good as the cover. :)
