Hard to believe they are from the same family as mulberry. The trees i saw yesterday were quite impressive looking sitting at the shoreline with these large heavy “horse apples” hanging down. Hate to be beneath and have one hit u on the head,

Ive been gardening, wifey been busy in the kitchen.
Baklava?
Yep...it’s now soaking in syrup. More pix to follow. She’s meeting up with new found relatives from Jordan and Holland. Can’t go empty handed..
See, baklava I can recognize. A green, bumpy ball stuck up in a tree - not in a million years.
Your wifey has relatives from diverse places!
In the Uk we pronounce the h and so say "a herb"P.S. Am I wrong to write “a” herb? “An” herb, “an” history etc. irks me greatly.
In the USA they drop the h and so say "an 'erb"
Technically, the USA is probably more correct, but old-fashioned by UK standards
Snap!

Thank you, Linda! It really drives me crazy [emoji23]
Hotel is a French word, like herb, and technically is pronounced without the h. However, modern pronunciation has changed.
Daughter got a large crumb of French Bread crust in her eye once. She was only about 7 and the bread was a proper crusty baguette in France. It was vey difficult to remove and she was screaming her head off; she stills says it was one of the most painful things that has happened to her.
The scenery changed through 650 miles from the flat lands of Northern France through to the mountainous Alps near Grenoble via Bourg en Bresse famous for its chickens (the one pictured marks the region and is a landmark we always looked out for since the children were small) .
We made good time to Montéllimar and are staying in a motel for the night. We’ll sleep well after a long day!

You deserve a good rest now. Not see you tomorrow — or whenever you can. [emoji173]️
Bonne nuit, Linda, bien dormir!
(I think)
Baklava?
As a scientist, I must try this on wifey, just to see if it's as painful as you all say.
Lovely!
Mind you, that chicken is enormous, but painfully thin.
Not been getting up for elevenses to catch all the worms.
Good evening,Lyn.
My weekend is not here, but that's okay, I just won another prize in a competition on the Fossil Forum, so I'm happy.
