A Taste from Home

Do you think I could really save $0.30?
Taken at a new grocery store in our city.

Spring Fruit

Two fruits that are big right now: pineapple and lychee!






They always clean the pineapple for you - usually using a trowel-shaped tool to get everything.



Lychee has a bumpy skin that you peal off with your fingernail. Inside is a juicy white fruit with a small pit.


Daoist Temple



In May our class took a field trip to a Daoist (Taoist) Temple.


A statue of Laozi the founder.



You can see the ying/yang symbol in a pool at the bottom.



Many people were lighting and burning incense.
