A busy day in the garden, growing chilies, cutting bamboo shoots, pickling bamboo shoots and delivering bamboo shoots is so much fun.

Hello friends, today is another busy day for me but it is very fun. After the day before yesterday I did not do my best in the garden. Today I have to clear the pending work, which is planting chili peppers that the farmer gave me. There are still many plants left. I thought for a day or two about where to plant chili peppers in the garden. I consulted with my wife many times but did not agree. Finally, we decided to plant in front of the house as shown in the picture. Today I planted chili peppers in front of the house as mentioned. I used different materials from planting outside, which is bamboo leaves to support the soil and fertilizer that the farmer gave me. It was perfectly mixed. When my wife and I finished planting, we still had another mission.

That is cutting bamboo shoots. This period is very careful of bamboo shoots because I made a mistake by leaving the stem or the trunk to process into khao lam. My friends must have eaten sticky rice in bamboo. When I left the bamboo to make khao lam, the bamboo shoots did not grow at all, causing me to miss the opportunity to earn money per week. I felt a little regret and disappointed because the bamboo that I left to make khao lam was not as I thought. There was some mistake because I fertilized my bamboo with manure and chemical fertilizer, making the trunk complete and fertile until there were almost no holes and it could not be used to make khao lam or sticky rice in bamboo. So I had to cut all the bamboo that I had left and cut the new shoots that grew a little, not a lot. I told them to wash it, clean it, and cut it to pickle it to send to my wife's mother to cook and sell on Koh Phangan.

When the pickling was finished, my wife and I drove out to deliver bamboo shoots. This time we got more than 14 kilograms. We sent them to Koh Phangan via EMS express. I picked up the package carefully so that no water would leak out. The organic pickled bamboo shoots were pickled by my wife and sent to my mother. I think they will arrive in a day or two because we send them frequently.

Finished with the mission of sending bamboo shoots at the post office. The atmosphere is as shown in the picture. Then I drove back home. It should be an afternoon meal because it was past lunch. Today, I have a menu that my wife made this morning. I saw that my wife likes to eat longan from Na Sar, so I stopped to buy some at the market. Today, the menu has papaya salad and bamboo shoot chicken curry. There is also sticky rice. She carefully prepared the food beautifully, making it look delicious. I ate deliciously and sat down to rest until I fell asleep and woke up another year ago.

I went out to pick up my daughter and then the evening mission was to bring the pets into the pen. Today was a bit hectic but life was simple as usual. I ate well, slept well and was healthy. That alone is enough to make me happy. See you in the next post.
