rakski @rakski (135025) • Philippines 31 Mar

Do you like this? I like this one since I also like peanut butter. It taste really good. But I know a lot of people who does like this. It is now a favorite as well of my nephew's three year old son.

rsa101 My wife absolutely loves eating this! I enjoy it too, but it’s not exactly my favorite—I find the taste a bit too overwhelmingly sweet for me. Maybe it’s just me being more sugar-conscious (thanks to diabetes) that makes me extra mindful about eating it in...

Growing where it shouldn't

Judy Evans @JudyEv (349411) • Rockingham, Australia 30 Mar

We are house-sitting and there are lawns on both sides of the house. This vagrant plant is poking its head out through the lawn. Do you recognise it? It’s a pumpkin. There are several pumpkin platns in the garden but somehow this...

rsa101 It’s unfortunate that seeds don’t get to choose where they grow. They rely entirely on where their planter decides to place them, with no say in the matter. Some may even fall unnoticed, left to struggle on their own. I just hope they’re given the chance to...

The Horse @TheHorse (224821) • Walnut Creek, California 28 Mar
