The homemade pickled tomatoes (skin removed, pickled with apple vinegar and roselle syrup) are soooo delicious!

 

[Phaedra]

What is roselle syrup?

It's made from soft candied hibiscus flowers - pretty color, refreshing taste - and is perfect for yogurt, baking, or chilled (sparkling) water.

Your English is good.
Welcome to BYH!
This meme came to mind when you mentioned being a non-native speaker.

Bay, thanks for your kind words. Although we never met, you always make me feel so warm. I only have a very small family here, DH and DD, and all other fur and feather kids. My parents are no longer there, so as other relatives.

Sometimes, when I feel blue (yes, I did feel so sometimes), I will think if I am a kind of 'rootless' person, in a foreign place. Thankfully, such a blueish moment seldom caught me.

You always give me some sort of strength and are a road model. A mega hug!

You are a beautiful soul, home is within you. You are so brave, leaving the country where you were born and raised, to move to an unknown country, everything new to you. I admire you so much for that.

Anytime y’all need a vacation, fly into Dallas, Texas. I’ll pick y’all up, y’all can stay on the farm and I’ll be your tour guide for east Texas.
