My (former) officemates trimmed its leaves.
Pineapple also has a new potmate, a sili plant. :)

My sister is growing oyster mushrooms in our kitchen! These were taken 2 weeks ago (November 22); we have already harvested the mushrooms and are waiting for new ones to grow again. :D

fireworks set

Fireworks to cap off the week-long school fair.

We were blessed with clear skies. The fireworks were lovely! And the best part was that I had Ronjie at snuggle distance that evening. :D

school fair

Some weeks ago, when I was still in Japan, I visited Ronjie's school which was having its annual week-long fair. There were booths with students selling various food and non-food products, programs and presentations of all sorts, and even a bingo game. And on the last day (the day I visited), fireworks capped the evening. :) Some photos:

Fireworks photos in the next entry. I took so many.
