squirrel gardening

i'm hiring squirrels next growing season cause look what they grew in my garden this season!

peanuts!!

[peanuts! big and small!] 


[peanut plant!]

unfortunately the growing season isn't long enough in this region but thanks to my bushy-tailed rodent friends, i got about 6 peanuts off one plant i pulled out (there were a number of plants scattered throughout the garden).

(there must be a lot of squirrels in china -- it's the world's largest peanut producer, producing an estimated 14 million metric tonnes in 2008 of these fart-facilitating seeds, almost half of the world's supply. that's a heckuva lot of peanut sauce).

dan dan mein (also known as dan dan noodles)

slippery little wheat noodles, steaming hot and spicy broth with a peanutty/sesame-y flavour, topped with ground pork and oftentimes green onions, and cheap, to boot.. what more could i say?



(the best one of the bunch)


try it! eat more! get fat! you deserve a bowl of heaven!
