Table set with food and candles, a traditional meal offering. Multiple bowls of white rice, pork, soup, and other dishes are arranged with ceramic spoons and cups, alongside a basket of orange persimmons and lit candles on various levels. The table is covered in a floral patterned tablecloth.

A decorative altar with a seated Guanyin statue as the focal point, surrounded by spiritual paraphernalia including incense burners with lit incense sticks, offering fruits such as persimmons and oranges on a plate, a small Buddha image, and string lights with multiple colored bulbs.

#WinterSolstice offerings for Dad & ancestors 🙏❤️ We have a simple home altar in our living room. We have ceremonial incense stations in our kitchen & both the front & back porches too.
We have no photographs of my matriarch Grandparents nor my patriarch Grandpa - or else they'd be on the wall too.

Our living room's interior featuring an eclectic arrangement of objects. A wooden shelf displays CDs and framed photographs, while a nearby table is set with tea cups and bowls containing tang yuandessert, alongside a teapot and a lit candle. My Dad's portrait & urn are atop entertainment cabinet. Various decorations, including a hanging ornament and a framed portrait of my patriarch Grandma, adorn the walls. This is our simple home ancestors altar.

An arrangement on a table features a framed black and white portrait of my Dad, two large, fluffy steamed buns on a plate, a teacup, and a lit red candle in a glass jar. Persimmons are stacked on lower far right.

A table setting featuring a tall lit candle, a woven basket filled with persimmons, and two bowls of tang yuan dessert with a spoon, all set on a patterned tablecloth.

A ceremonial fruits offerings arrangement featuring a basket filled with persimmons, oranges, and a pomelo, alongside a bowl of longans and a candle. The fruits are set on a patterned tablecloth.

Fruits on a white plate: two oranges flanking three yellow-orange persimmons. The persimmons have brown calyxes. The plate has a textured, ribbed surface.

As persimmons turn to orange, doctors turn green is a nice saying and roughly corresponds to ”an apple a day keeps the doctor away" (found at #elizabethandoh). My latest fermentation experiment, and what a flavor explosion! Kakife, a water kefir with persimmon, fennel, cinnamon, and star anise. Never thought that fennel and star anise would go so well in a drink. I stole this recipe from #weltdermikroben. So simple and a completely different flavor. #persimmons #waterkefir

A glass with a cork ring to hold is filled with a light-colored liquid. Next to it is a persimmon.

Any #persimmons lovers or aficionados out there? Peel, or cut? Eat the skin or no? Seeds? Cold or room temperature? I'm not really familiar with these,but they were on sale so I bought one. Definitely pretty. (Edited to a less blurry image, added hashtags).

Apparently, #crows love to peck at #persimmons

#Corvids #Portland

A dozen of the crows flocking around a persimmon tree, perching on its branches, and pecking at the ripe orange fruit that is clearly visible now that all the leaves have fallen.

Hoshigaki season again. #persimmons #gardening

A collage of six photos showing persimmons: close-ups of persimmons held in hands, a glass filled with them, and cardboard boxes overflowing with the orange fruit, one box of persimmons with a "Persimmon" sign, behind it.

Good morning, fine Fediverse folks 🌅

Did you know that we also grow #persimmons at Welland Community Orchard ?
This is the 1st year that I've seen several fruits on the persimmon trees in the #CommunityOrchard 😀

@niccord 🤣 It's so strange how the harvest of fruit trees can vary from year to year!

I wish I had that problem - too many #persimmons! I would definitely prove you wrong about those numbers! 😋

Today’s fun: Pruning #apples, #raspberries, #grapes, #figs, #persimmons, #peaches, #nectarine, #pear, #blackberries, and #cherry. Tomorrow, #roses and #citrus.

Each year some prunings go in vases to force their blooms inside - cherry, persimmon, peach and apple. #norcal #MendocinoCounty

One of the last of its kind: an orchard hidden within the urbanity of San Jose. The entire Santa Clara Valley used to be farmland, with vast orchards of nuts, cherries, apricots, avocado, and (here) persimmons. Most of the orchards were paved over decades ago, leaving a few isolated islands that have been rapidly disappearing. Six weeks from now this one will be only a memory, too. 😢

#SanJose #Orchard #Persimmons

An orchard of persimmon trees. It's early winter in California. The tree directly in front of the camera is completely bare. The many trees behind have dropped their leaves, but are still covered with intense red/orange fruit.

Had some egotrip and drew a bunch of kakis (persimmons) character and I guess now I'm animating them ...
This one is already available on giphy to use as stickers by searching @kakimoisi or kaki, or persimmon or cannibalism
