Writer and amateur photog. I seek to inspire and inform with the words I write and share and the photos I take. I have written a book of short stories: Terra Cotta Beauty, and I am working on a lot more. Reading and writing fuel my energy. In reading, I explore this vast and diverse world, in writing, I employ my over-active imagination and address the 'what-if' questions that life often throws at us.

Agbalumos in a Wheelbarrow

By on February 6, 2017

The fruit known as the African cherry is called agbalumo by the Yorubas, but is also referred to in parts of Nigeria as udara . The seasonal fruit has an acquired tart taste but it is the mahogany-colored seeds which always reminded me of cockroaches which meant that I never really developed a taste for them.
