Fats, Vitamins and Minerals

Since feeling better, I have been able to do a bit more work on-line. In particular, I’ve updated Edward’s Crochet and Computability website with two new patterns, and several posting on medicinal plants on Fortun’s Urban Gardening. Fortun has also been posting on his blog again after nearly 2 months hibernation! My partner and I have also started a new blog called “Dialogues” which currently has an entry on intellectual property rights and academic publishing.

Hopefully, my health will continue to be better.

A few days ago, we managed a visit to my mom’s and to play ball with Alwin. We try to do this regularly so that both Alwin and my partner can get their exercise. Below is a photo of a drawing that Alwin said was for me:

I also noticed that some plants in my mom’s garden have lost their leaves - apparently eaten by a large family of grasshoppers that we saw some 3 weeks ago. Well, now most of the grasshoppers seem to have hopped away somewhere else, save for this one which was munching on the leaves of a night-blooming flower called Five-o-clock, if I’m not mistaken with the time! *

Below is another view of the grasshopper showing off its beautiful legs!

George was there, too, of course, always pleased whenever we visit. And always knowing how to pose for the camera, below is a photo of George relaxing.

I guess the next step is for me to learn to relax too!

The plant is actually called Alas Cuatro or Four O’clock! Thanks to Stuartxchange!
