Home Grown Choy Sum
Remember a month ago I’ve blogged about the choy sum seed that Leah gave them to me that is sprouting in my garden?
Now I have home grown veges. Not totally organic. At least I know it is free from pesticide and chemical fertilizer.
So far, I have them (choy sam) in my fried noodles and last weekend, I have them as a dish itself.

[…] However, I just learn on trial and error. For example the choy sum. If I throw item no. 2 (above) on the soil, it will attract lots of snail. And these are not big snail. They are so tiny you can hardly notice them and they hide under all the vegies/fruits skin that you thrown. Slowly by days after eating all the vegies/fruits skin, they started to attack your choy sum. By then, the numbers starts to multiply (about 30 snails). This is when i started to get busy again by killing all the tiny snails using a scissor to snip them into half. Then I got impatient cos the snails is really tiny. So I ended up using my fingers to squeeze them. Ok, you can go ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! Not only I have green fingers. Now I have icky fingers! Aiyah, just wash your hands lor. So now I stop throwing item no. 2 on the soil. Even if the snail is there, I just let it be cos I’m lazy. Eating one or two leaves from my plot won’t die, right? […]
