I’ve always seen this kind of caterpillar in our vegetable garden. Besides, I’ve caught this kind for few times too, during the preparation of cooking broccoli or cauliflower dish. I’ve always wanted to have the pictures of this tiny creepy creature because I actually find them a bit cute and I like its color with stripy white on its body and I like the way they crawl.

Now that Round Robin came up with another challenge: I’ve always wanted to photograph, I thought that this can be the best time to share these pictures.

Do you want to know what will be your luck on the future? Why don’t try to have some fortune cookies more especially during New Years’ time?

Yes, they are real, crunchy and yummy! When you open it, there are certain messages saying about your luck. Well, I’m personally don’t believe with it. I just enjoyed the taste of these real cookies.

Pot marigold, also known by its scientific name Calendula officinalis. When I first heard about the name Pot Marigold, I thought that they are plants that are commonly grown in pots. But the name actually came from one of their many uses in food. This edible flower was called a “pot herb” and was tossed into the stew or vegetable pot.

I also heard that when special someone gave you Marigold, it symbolizes their everlasting love to you. I love the color of the Marigold while in fact they bloom all year round.
