There is a tree in the backyard of my house that bears lovely red berries. I dont know what these fruits are called in English. Cos ' there are some things even Google can’t tell you. Unless you know the right keywords to search with, of course. Yeah, so in Malayalam, they are called 'Love-lolikka's'. Since Google failed me, I conjured the audacity to christen them 'Love-berries'.
Our tree bears bunches and bunches of these lovely berries. My Amma is a farmer who does adventure farming, the kind that involves adventures like climbing up ladders to pluck lovelolikka, muringakka, sheema-chakka, pomegranates etc. Yes, we cultivate all these exotic fruits in our garden. And I don’t care if muringakka doesn't sound exotic to anyone. So here are some fabulous pictures I clicked of a handful of the lovely berries we picked this morning.
After the photo-session, the lovely Lolikka's were transformed from good-looking models to yummy pickle. No mercy !
