Hello everyone, very good morning, how were those walks through the natural landscapes? Around here nature has given us very rainy days, and I have wanted to photograph them but it has not been possible because I would have to go out and there is too much flu outbreak that I wanted to avoid... but I will keep trying. Today I am not going to give you so much information about the images I am sharing with you, first, because they are not mine, and second, because even though I know where they went, I just want you to see how beautiful they are.
In my previous posts, I told you that I have many beloved people outside the country, my son, my grandchildren, my partner, my brother and good friends. I am not planning to leave yet, but I always travel with them and we visit many beautiful places together, virtually, since they give me photos and videos not only of wonderful landscapes, but also of everyday situations, meals, and things that, like me, are captured by our cameras, and that I also send them from here.
My best friend lives in Boston, in a farm house on the outskirts of the city where there is a large expanse of fertile land and there, she and her husband have planted many fruit trees. This week it was their turn to pick the cherry crop, the plants were very full and they filled several baskets. Not only did they enjoy eating them, but they made cherry jam and cherry pie for the children. To see the incandescent red fruits was to imagine the delicacies they could prepare with them. Here I usually buy them in syrup, because I haven't been able to find any fruit sale that has them, even though I know there are those who have managed to harvest them.
But let's talk a little about the cherry; it is a round fruit, very small, about 2 cm in diameter, usually very deep red, and some sometimes between light red and orange, there are also purple depending on the variety. The tree is known as cherry, and the taste of the fruit is sweet and juicy, although sometimes it also tends to be a little sour. If eaten fresh, the juicier they can be. They are commonly used in many recipes, especially in desserts, drinks and cocktails, preserves and ice cream, with pies and jams being a favorite. Among their properties are that they are rich in potassium, fiber and vitamins A and C, and these are best used when consumed fresh. If you have the opportunity to get cherries like these, you can enjoy their benefits and delicious flavor.
And changing the subject radically, my boy was a few days ago in Jamaica, and as he knows that I love to photograph iguanitas, he sent me this beautiful lady that was in the backyard of a house he visited. He tells me that this little lady is free in the trees and that she is practically like a pet of the house since they put her food and every now and then, she comes down to feed. Remember that iguanas live in the branches of very leafy trees, and feed on fruits and leaves, as well as certain insects. I told you about them in a previous post, since in the area where I live, they abound.
My iguanitas are almost all very green, this one is an ashy brown or grayish color, which indicates that it is an adult or old iguana. According to what he told me, it is not the only one that lives in the trees around the house, but it is the one that has been tamed, photographed, and even touched by the people who live there. Isn't it wonderful to be able to pet an iguanita? I have never had that opportunity, but I would love to.
The information provided about cherries can be expanded in the source of information that I share at the end of this publication. I hope you enjoyed this content, thank you very much for visiting my blog. Have a great weekend.
