New addition to our garden...

I have been searching for Kaffir lime leaf for past couple weeks, being craving for one of my favorite Nyonya dish and Kaffir lime leaf is one of the must have ingredients for the dish. On Saturday, after having dinner with our fellow neighbors at Chinatown, we stop by at one of the local Vietnamese nursery to check out whether they have the tree we want.

Yes!!... they do have it!!! This is it... Kaffir Lime Tree (Tai-Ko Kam)




Here is the closer look of the Kaffir Lime leaves, it always serves as popular ingredient in South East Asia.




In the meantime, Cindy also found her favorite passion fruit tree, she has been thinking for growing a passion fruit tree for a while, just couldn't find one in Houston, and today, she is bringing it back home!! 




Both of us went home with our face smiling.......
