Spices and My First Pear (Blossom)

 Here is my first souk (open air market) purchase chilling on my violin: a special Bahraini curry (with each of its spicy components coming from India), lentils (GOLD!) and cardamom for some tummy tea
  



   Look!  I found my first pear in Bahrain on a bulletin board at school  Actually, It's not a real pear. It's a poem by my main girl, HD, that describes the bud of the pear: "...your flower tufts - thick on the branch, bring summer and ripe fruit..." O 
The blossom will increase its pear-i-fying speed on Sunday, when the students flood the school and we finally meet.  Hurrah!
