Artsy nature

°

Nothing much going on during Corona. Kind of.

Delivery!

New palm tree is being delivered, all good ... tight corners managed

professionally, digging the hole very fast ... WOW.

Professionals remove the pot before the final transport.

And there it stands, the "little" palm tree. Our pool palm.

So many stones left over from the planthole.

Hm, such a pity it is not marble or sandstone,

had been prefect for some artistic trials.

Well, the nature offers loads of material for some photo trials.

Check this praying grasshopper, mantis (lat.), which greeted us on the windshield.

It actually was blown away only when we turned to the main road.

Oderazzi is getting quite desperate as not learning proper Spanish.

And then, instead of doing some proper home work

she decorates a boring pole in the garden with Spanish verbs.

Proper? Lazy, indeed.

Check this: home made vegetarian pea soup (with mint) and kanelbulla!

Thanks to Portals Nous.

And check this "mano di Buddha" lemon.

Yes, a very special type of lemon, am lucky to see the 

first fruit develop this year. Takes months. 

Sorry, have to post every now and then.

"Die Zitronatzitrone Buddhas Hand 

(Citrus medica ‘Digitata’ oder Citrus medica var. sarcodactylis) ist eine 

Variante der Zitronatzitrone (Citrus medica) mit auffällig geformten Früchten, 

die an die Finger einer Hand erinnern. Gartenhistoriker vermuten, dass alle 

ursprünglichen Zitrusfrüchte aus Assam vom Fuße des Himalayas stammen."

Another novelty in the garden:Saffron!!!

Our friend gave us some bulbs, I planted them a month ago 

and finally at least two plants are coming up.

kuvakaappaus Wikipedia

Crocus sativus, commonly known as saffron crocus, or autumn crocus, 

is a species of flowering plant of the Crocus genus in the iris family Iridaceae. 

It is best known for producing the spice saffron from the filaments that grow

 inside the flower. (Wikipedia)

Finnisch für Anfänger:

SAHRAMI = Safran / saffron

Our Porto Cristo friends are becoming mushroom specialists.

So I delivered them a full collection from Dar Ahlam.

Some small, some big, some eatable, some poisonous.

As revenge my hubby got to taste home made llampuga disches.

He loved it. 

And I was totally happy with my cheese and chicken combo.

Remember my posting of 13. October? Llampuga!

Seen in a shop window. Winter is coming, also to Mallorca.

Such a cosy chair.
