A very boring day, it rained all day which really limited my activities, the rain fell from 05.00 in the morning and didn't stop until the afternoon which made me have to get soaked to go to the garden today, of course it was very annoying considering my clothes and equipment would get wet when I went to the garden, but that didn't mean the rain would hinder my work.
Slippery ground is also the most important problem that makes me have to be very careful when doing activities, because slippery ground can make us slip and fall. and my grandfather warned me not to do heavy work today considering the rainy weather and slippery ground, so I just went to the garden for a while to clean some grass that was already very thick and long so that it dirtied my garden.
I immediately cut the grass using a machete to clear some of the thick grass, and cutting the grass also has many benefits for the plants.One of the benefits is that it makes the garden clean, thereby reducing the movement of weeds and reducing hiding places for pests such as mice,and many other benefits.
And look at the difference in my garden after I cut the grass and before I cut the grass
Before
After
The garden became clean and pleasing to the eye, I cleaned the garden manually using a machete. and that had to be done very carefully considering that the machete is a sharp object.
It's been almost 2 hours in the park and the rain has not stopped which makes me cold so I decided to go home immediately. I don't want to take any risks because health is the most important thing
And on my way home, I remembered my grandfather's message telling me to pick some star fruit to be used as an ingredient for today's cooking. Star fruit itself has a very sour taste so it becomes a natural sour seasoning for every dish.
And this is a starfruit tree that has already reached a large size.
After picking some of the star fruit, I immediately took them home, and picking the star fruit was not too difficult because the fruit was accessible so I could immediately pick it using both of my hands.
As soon as I got home, I went straight to the bathroom to clean myself first, and after taking a shower, I immediately had lunch to fill my stomach and increase my stamina.
After eating, I went straight to the side of the house and saw several trees such as guava, rambutan, and coconut and checked their growth.
This is a water apple tree that is already big in size and this guava was planted by my grandfather several years ago. and the guava has been successfully harvested several times and on this occasion the guava already has several small seeds and flowers.
Maybe in about 2 or 1 month, this water apple can be harvested and enjoyed. I will wait for that moment.
And because I hadn't gotten any edible results from the water apple, I finally decided to go to the rambutan tree which was also close to the house.
And from the rambutan tree I saw happiness because this rambutan tree already had fruit, even though some of it was not yet ripe, and there were already some fruit that were ripe and ready to eat.
Maybe in a few weeks this fruit will be ripe and hopefully this fruit is free from pests and pests such as squirrels, because squirrels often cause harm especially to fruits. And it is appropriate to eradicate them because they can harm us.
And ready to eat
The taste is very sweet but it is a shame that there are only a few ripe rambutans, but I am grateful because this is one of the results of hard work, and this rambutan was planted by my grandfather before I was born and now the rambutan fruit can be enjoyed by his grandchildren.
However, eating rambutan alone was not enough, so I decided to go behind the house and pick young coconuts.
Since I was alone, I only picked one coconut.
And I immediately opened the coconut using a machete, but opening a coconut using a machete must be done very carefully.
After I successfully split the young coconut, I immediately drank the water which tasted very sweet and of course very refreshing.
The water is very refreshing and I really like coconut water, and unfortunately the coconut flesh is not thick, but it is still delicious to enjoy.
I really enjoyed it, when I was on the terrace of the house, suddenly it started raining heavily which made me feel extremely cold, and because I couldn't stand the cold any longer, I decided to go inside the house.
And when I got home I immediately made this post with the main aim of providing entertainment for all my friends ♥️
