Welcome the Summer!
Buffet March 7th, 2006
Clockwise from bottom: mango, velvet fruit, papaya, custard apple
Unbelievable! Is it March already? Wasn’t it only Christmas the other day? I can’t believe how much time has passed. This blog has way too much backlog, hehehe!
I’ll write down what posts are to be expected in the next few weeks:
- Bacolod escapade: featuring the famous sweets and hunting down more than just chicken inasal;
- Fruits galore;
- Finding the lineage of our hometown suclati (chocolate); and
- Farm and marketplace adventures or how I make a pest of myself in the name of research.
Stay tuned or nag me to make sure I do write.

Oh. Is “velvet fruit” what “mabolo” is called In English? I assume that’s a mabolo. Have seen this fruit only once in my life-many years ago whe I went back home for a visit. It was the misc offering of a vendor at-if I remember correctly-San Juan Market. There were only three mabolos available. I had never heard of this fruit before and have heard little about it since then. Wouldn’t the season for mabolo be a little bit later-perhaps towards June or July?

Goodness! I didn’t realise there were so many nagging friends!
Tee hee!
Okidokie, will work double time, hahaha!
Hi RST! Velvet fruit is indeed mabolo or talang in Capampangan. They’re starting to bear fruit but the season is till around July, sometimes even August.
