Cashew

Hi Honey!  How's it going with you today?  I hope that you are healthy, and feeling absolutely great.  You are so precious to me, and I love you.  There's nothing much going on around here for me.  I did go and vote, but otherwise it's just another average day.  I went early to vote, but there was a long line and I got a bit sunburned.  Then I did my laundry.  I usually do my laundry in my Mom's washer every Wednesday.  I think later on I'll practice bass a little.  Playing the same stuff over and over again, you know, so I don't make any mistakes.

Hi Natty Honey!  How are you, my darling?  What did you eat today?  I have a 5 year old cashew tree in my yard, and it's already bearing fruit.  Last year I got 5 fruit, and this year it looks like I'll be getting 4.  It's just a baby tree.  I picked my first ripe cashew for this year's season.  Alhamdulillah!  The seed is outside the fruit for a cashew, and the seed is where we get cashew nuts, that you normally see.  The seed pod is filled with a sticky yellow resin around the nut, so I don't know how they roast it.  I eat the fruit, sliced with onions, hot pepper, and salt.  Today, I ate that with my Mom's fried rice.
This is my apprentice, Gwen.
