The Hidden Beauty of Pollination



I think that this is my favourite video.  The magic and the work of so many different forces are needed to create fruits, vegetables, nuts and beautiful flowers for us and I think we sometimes forget or take it for granted.  

That an apple tree yielding so much delicious fruit started as a single seed is truly magic.  It reminds me of this wonderful quote: 

“You can count the seeds in an apple, but you can't count the apples in a seed."


Enjoy!  This is truly beautiful.

Salmon Tartar - Asian Style

Served here with baked Lays potato chips or toasted baguette In our family we use the expression ''mish mash'' to describe a dinner when we will just go through the fridge and freezer and put a bunch of easy (but good) things together to create a meal.  Actually, this is one of our favorite ways to eat because everyone prepares their favorite item and it all comes together buffet (or tapas) style.
