Food

So you want to grow food in your garden, but something more substantial than vegetables?

As spring is just around the corner, you get the urge that fruit trees are what you want to enhance your yard with. Nothing like having apples, pears and plum trees in full blossom - to mark the arrival of spring. The thought of big delicious fruit picked and eaten straight off the tree, its juices running down your hand entices the idea even more.

But wait, growing fruit trees requires foresight, responsibilities and commitment, especially, when the fruit do not always turn out the way you imagined.

This winter I decided to make myself The Perfect Omelette.

I eat organic only and I try to eat food that features anti-oxidant and anti-cancer ingredients. As well I put some seafood, in this omelette to balance the cholesterol  in the milk and eggs.

If you’re not fond of garlic you can stop reading now.

My wife Rose and I were sitting at the breakfast table recently when I noticed her carefully peeling all the pith off her orange before eating it. "Why are you doing that? " I asked to which she replied "my Granny always told me to do that because it's no good for you".

"That's funny" I said "mine always told me I was supposed to eat it because it is good for you"

Rushing to the computer and typing in "pith" a new world suddenly opened up to us.
