Those Aloe vera in the second photo are so huge yah!
I saw a few ajummas buying them.
I wonder what they do with them?
Does anyone know?

Btw. Have you ever try eating bugs before?
Well. I did came across road side stalls selling bugs when
I was traveling in Thailand and Beijing but
I didn’t have the guts to try it at all :o
If you’re curious what kind of bugs is being sold in
Beijing night market,
Check it out over here >>

Ok. Here’s a relaxing song for a tiring week I had.

giant aloe vera like this also available at sg market. i bought them before. i sometime add them into soup. or simply blend them with fruits to make healthy fruit juice :) my family cut it into cubes and boil with dry longan and red dates to make dessert.
Haha. i tried fried bugs before when i travel to Bangkok. grasshopper is super yummy. crunchy and nice texture. scorpion tasted hard and bitter. a few other unknown bugs tastes weird. you should give grasshopper a chance next time. highly recommended for first trial.
oh ya. I ate fresh grubs before. yummy ^_^
Thanks for the idea! blend them with fruits!? I think it’ll be a refreshing taste yah? boiling it with longan and dates sounds yummy too!
あと、一日がんばりましょう。。なんか、日本の下町と似ています。
そうなの。なんかちょっと巣鴨っぽいとか！やっと金曜日だ！良いお週末をー
That is really, seriously, huge aloe vera! Lol! But the bugs, are common in Thailand. :) Heard it is nice but I m not so adventurous to chew on them.
Yeah. I saw roadside stalls selling them in Thailand but didn’t dare to try at all :o
u can eat those aloe vera and use the meat after peeling to put on ur skin if it was burnt from the sun – it helps cool down :)
Ah..icic :) I think I’ve used it to treat burn too coz’ it feels cooling after applying on the skin.
You take great photos. :)
I would probably eat a grasshopper…but that is as far as I’ll ever go….but hey, you never know.
Thanks Eileen :) I still can bring myself to try grasshopper yet…
Happy Friday & 600th post!
Thank you :) & thank you for being a reader :) My 3rd blog anniversary is coming soon! time flies..
We can drink aloe so maybe to drink it? Did you ever tried? It’s really soft and sweet :)
Oh. I think I drank it once. yes. it’s nice. Is it a common drink in Kroea? I don’t think I can find it here…
