I’ve found Findus “Klassiska & goda” meat balls in one of the stores nearby. I knew they had Findus frozen vegetables, but I’ve never seen meat balls here before.

Gizmo’s 11th birthday

0

Today Gizmo is turning 11 years old.
Wow, we’ve been through a lot together now. I fell in love with the little guy the very first time I saw him – he was the cutest puppy I’ve ever seen – of course… :-)

Gizmo loves small rubber balls, the ones that usually comes in the beach ball set. He has a pink one that he plays with a lot and he’d had it since last summer. But now it is about to give up so I bought a new ball that I gave him today. Well, actually I had to buy the whole set, so if anyone wants 2 beach ball rackets, you let me know, right?!

Cactus fruits

The cactus fruit is common on Malta. We see them everywhere… They are full of seeds, but the taste is sweet. Just peel of the skin and dig in. But beware of  the cactus tags on the skin when you peel them!

Għajn Tuffieħa Tower is a fortification that stands on the cliffs overlooking the shore at Għajn Tuffieħa Bay on the north west coast of Malta. It is one of Lascaris towers that Grand Master Juan de Lascaris-Castellar of the the Knights of Malta ordered be built (1637). A watchtower, it was originally armed with a half pounder gun and garrisoned by four men.
