Birthday flowers.
Lots of bananas, star fruits and miracle fruits ripe this week.
For those of you unfamiliar with miracle fruits they are a bit of sweet pulp around a seed.
After the pulp contacts your tongue it acts like a natural sweetener and flavor enhancer for about 30 minutes afterward making the star fruit and other fruits really taste good.

The leaders received star fruits and miracle fruits.
Today for Kid's Club about 150 children will receive both bananas and star fruit.
Eli pointed out yesterday how good it is to be able to count school days on one's fingers.
Yes, 10 to go [then a long weekend and we'll start the next 'year' for a couple weeks.
Anna pointed out this morning 35 days before we travel to the USA. So I guess we're into count down mode.
Next week my folks head out for a trip to South Africa with friends. So thankful that the Lord opened this door to bless them!
It will be strange not to have as much E-mail contact with them as we normally do..so extra E-mails and comments welcome.

Miracle fruits! I've never heard of that! Wow, what a blessing to have all that fruit. I miss the tropical fruits of El Salvador, but we're enjoying THE MOST AMAZING peaches, figs and grapes here...
Blessings to you.
YUM, Haitian bananas. These grocery store substitutes can hardly compare!! We need miracle fruit so we can pretend our fruit is as sweet... :) But they wouldn't allow that here I guess, bummer!
Will be praying for safe travels for your parents!
Olive Tree- peaches and grapes sound good. We have a fig but no fruit yet-it did grow a lot this summer in the heat.
Sloans. You can buy miracle fruit in the USA-it helps some folks with metallic taste from chemo but VERY expensive. Thanks for the prayers for the folks-haven't heard from them yet.
