I like to eat crabs. How about you? Besides, I also kill, clean and prepare crabs for cooking. If you love to eat crabs as much as I do, you should really pick up those skills too! Killing crabs is a pain especially if you are dealing with a giant one. My father in law passed to me 3 giant crabs last week, each weighing at least up to half a kilogram. I usually use chopstick to stab into its abdomen to kill a crab. I would say it takes a lot of your energy to overpower the strength of a giant crab in order to kill it.
Ferns caught my attention the other day. Ferns are one of the oldest plants on earth, with its first fossil record dated well back to 360 million years ago! Unlike most plants, ferns do not have either seeds or flowers. They reproduce via spores. Ferns do have stems, leaves and roots though. I took these close-up pictures of ferns in the garden of Rumah Ebo, a guesthouse I stayed in Bandung. How I would like to have a garden as green and as serene as this one! Growing ferns in your garden does make your garden looks greener, doesn’t it?

I just came back from my 10-day holidays in Siem Reap, Cambodia. Of course when you are visiting Siem Reap, you would not want to miss out on the world renowned Angkor Wat. Temples of Angkor Wat are known for their delicate carvings on the columns and walls.

As a self confessed garden lover, I would like to add garden window boxes to my garden collection. It should be placed just beneath the windows of my kitchen which directly faces my backyard garden. There are many window boxes to choose from. One can choose his or her window box according to different size, finish, style and material. For examples, there are vinyl window boxes, wooden window boxes, metal window boxes and many more. Besides, you need some accessories as well such as corbels, brackets and deck rails.
Are you a garden lover too?
