"I've seen you without your clothes on before. Never thought I'd see you naked."

One of my favorite lines from "Firefly."

Christmas Biryani. 24 December 2025. Home, Mid-Atlantic.

We lived and raised our children in South Asia for much of their formative years. Some folks think we have some unusual family traditions as a result. There's nothing like our much anticipated Christmas Biryani. 💜

That's a couple of saffron packages... Making some saffron whirly buns for my soon to be former co-workers. Cinnamon buns but with saffron. Because "lussebullar" is boring.

After more than a decade growing saffron outdoors, my relocation means I have to try indoors if I am going to continue the practice, and it looks like about half the new corms have flowered. Now I get to decide how I want to use this. Using freshly-dried saffron is a rare treat.

#saffron #plants #food

The dried stigmas from twenty-one saffron crocus blossoms. Untrimmed.A planter with twenty mature saffron corms planted. Some made flowers this season, some just made greens.

The real trick will be what happens a year from now?
