Our backyard extends beyond the area behind our house, it includes the places we frequent, the places we visit, the places where we live life. This blog is all about the things we find in our backyard and beyond.

On Our Blogs

Two more days of NaBloPoMo to go! If you don't know, I've been blogging everyday at our new home, Amoores, for the whole month of November. I am proud to say this is the second year I've done it and I hadn't missed a day! Well, sure, I've cut it close, posting some inane stuff at a quarter before midnight just so I don't miss my deadline, but still, I did it! Oh, but I haven't posted today yet though. hehe!

I've cooked up some delectables in our new kitchen:
Toasted some pumpkin seeds for snacking, and baked an uber sweet caramel cake.

I also started cooking soup again since the weather has gotten cooler and I wanted to use up some bittermelon leaves from the garden before the frost gets to them. Check out the Mung Bean Soup I cooked up.

We also finally got some rain the last couple of days! This is after an almost 100 day stretch of no measurable rain fall. We have been on a severe drought status for the past month, and officials have been saying we were down to 60 something days of drinking water left. I don't know that the rainfall we've been having will make a huge impact, but I hope it raise the water line on our lakes a little bit.
