I am really bad at sticking to New Year Resolutions – particularly any that involve losing weight, taking more exercise or drinking less – so this year, as 2010 has been designated the International Year of Biodiversity, I have decided to explore the subject in my own way.
I plan to:
1. Identify all the green vegetables in the “Indian shop”.
2. Learn to cook and eat at least 3 “new” vegetable dishes.
3. Create 2010 Desktop wallpapers with my pictures of plants.
4. Create eGreetings cards with the rest of my plant pictures.
5. Volunteer my time to do some biodiversity work.
And, of course, the plan is to share my lessons with you all. Suggestions for which three new vegetable dishes you’d like me to learn to cook are welcome – the list currently stands at (apologies I don’t know the English words for these vegetables yet): Turia, Karela, Papdi Oondhiu, Suran and Kankoda.
