Baby Lucas continues to improve. Slowly. Please keep praying. He is ready to be done with the hospital and wants to go home.
This cashew fruit tree is right beside our house. We pick the fruit and hold it by the cashew nut seed to eat it. Sun-ripened cashew fruit is so delicious I don’t know how to describe it. It is super-rich in vitamin C. It has no seed inside, like apples or peaches, but is more like a big strawberry. It has a choke-cherry effect of dryness. Why most people don’t like them is a mystery to me, as I can easily eat five at a time. The seeds are toxic and will leave a big rash on your leg if you put them in your jeans pocket. When you roast the seeds, they spit off boiling flaming-oil sparks that leave blisters on your arms if you are not careful, and the smoke will burn your eyes and lungs. When we prepare the nuts for eating, we stir them over a fire in the yard with a long stick. Mostly we eat the fruit and throw the nuts away.
