In Doy’s garden

Log it in Doydum and a row of tomatoes sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Dates are the sweet, sticky fruit of the date palm, eaten dried, often at the end of a meal or to break the fast at iftar during Ramadan. They also go into energy balls, smoothies and desserts.

Medjool dates are much bigger than the usual kind, so a single Medjool is close to this whole portion.
