Edible flowers

Fruit Flowers 001, originally uploaded by coming2cambodia.

When I worked in Hawaii as a waitress, they always put flowers on the plate. Customers liked to tell me that it was illegal to put inedible on the plate with food. I always informed them that we only used edible flowers as decoration; I liked to get them to double my tip if I ate the flower. Some people did.

Today we got a different type of edible flower in the mail.

  3. Those things are awesome! How cool that it survived the mail in one piece! ENJOY!!!!

  4. Is it wrong to tell you I have fruit envy? In the southern hemisphere we’re all about the grapes, a few last straggling melons, apples, pears, quinces and then loads and loads of citrus. Berries are long gone! Hope the arrangement was as delicious as it looks. And a friend grows nasturtiums and we eat them (and the capers she makes out of part of them) with abandon. I love edible flowers!

  5. I think the thing I most miss from my living in Cambodia is the fruit. The fruit in Chile is very good– when in season. But, out of season, you just don’t see variety.

  6. OMG fruit flowers looks super yummy.
