What is that?!?

This is rambutan.  Rambut is the word for hair in Indonesian.  I think you can see the connection.  Actually, it tastes pretty good.  The picture below is what it looks like when opened.  Inside the white "meat' is a seed about the size of a grape.  Looks bad; tastes good.  

 

 

 

Lovely bits of debris found inside the bag of sugar I recently bought.  I thought about throwing the whole bag away but couldn't bring myself to be that wasteful.  So instead I spent twenty minutes going through the sugar picking out whatever the stuff was.  Some of it looked like rocks.    But don't feel sorry for me, :o) since fortunately a bag of sugar only holds about 4 cups. 

 

 

 

 

I still don't know what these things were.  The only thing I recognized in the mess were wings.  Ugh!  Below is  a closer look.  Thought you might enjoy that. 

 

 

 

 

 

Cheechuck (gecko) poop on my scooter!!  Those cheechucks are everywhere!  Below is a close-up for your viewing pleasure.  :o) Notice also the raindrops on my scooter - had to ride home from church in the rain. 



It's the little things that make life interesting.  :o)
