Early in the morning we were awakened by the strange noise outside our house. It was the children getting fruits in our backyard.
The BALIMBING (Ingles: carambola o starfruit)
Though I cannot stop them from getting the BALIMBING, I myself get one, I mean two... for this is the first time I am going to harvest fruits from our backyard.
So sweet and yummy isn't it? Yes, it is. But I cannot eat it because I have a mouth sore. Too bad because I have to give it to the children who have fun eating BALIMBING.
The BALIMBING (Ingles: carambola o starfruit)
Carambola, also known as star fruit, is the fruit of Averrhoa carambola, a species of tree native to the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. The fruit is a popular food throughout Southeast Asia, the South Pacific and parts of East Asia. The tree is also cultivated throughout non-indigenous tropical areas, such as in Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Peru, Colombia, Jamaica, Trinidad, Ecuador, Guyana, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Haiti, and Brazil, and, in the United States, in South Florida and Hawaii. |
