Cute possum... maybe I should put some herbs at my balcony too. hehe<BR/><BR/>In Singapore, custard apple is a.k.a sour soup. I dont know how it gets its name but I know sour soup's juice is sooooooo nice!

I think Pat is a doll--and obviously a foodie!!! She wanted more herbs from you. :):) <BR/><BR/>I've heard of custard apples, but never had them. I hope I get the opportunity some day.

Particia, glad to know that you & your mom love custard apples, too!<BR/><BR/>Sharmi, the possum is ok. Like kangaroo, they are protected animals here in Australia.<BR/><BR/>Genie, thanks for the info. The custard apple prices are quite reasonable at the moment since we are in season.<BR/><BR/>Simcooks,yes, they tend to ripe quickly. But I am quicker at eating them :P

I like custard apples! I only ate them when I visited my friend living in Sydney. I brought some home to Singapore (gosh they were heavy!) and they ripened very quickly when kept in plastic bags!

I've had custard apples (sold in stores in the US often as cherimoya) before, but not for a long time -- they are truly an incredible treat. I'm a big fan. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the reminder that I should check out our local market to see if maybe there's a cherimoya or two in stock. I bet it'll be pricey, but as a once-in-awhile treat, worth the spendiness.<BR/><BR/>That possum is so cute, by the

Hi Anh, The Possom looks cute. They usually stink right? <BR/>Btw the custard apples are found in plenty in India. They are very yummy tasting and is called Sita phal(phal means fruit).<BR/>I am getting ready for my WHB.<BR/><BR/>cheers<BR/>sharmi

Anh, I didn't know the name of this fruit in English! :)<BR/><BR/>My mom loved it so much. We could eat 3-4 at once. ;)

Cindy, do try the custard apples out! They are heavenly. :)<BR/><BR/>Gattina, :D The possum just ignored us really. He was busy sleeping I guess. :P And I agree with you on custard apples.<BR/><BR/>Angie, thanks pal. :)<BR/><BR/>Kalyn, I found that it was amazing to get a close up at the possum, too. It is only found in Australia, you see? <BR/><BR/>Brilynn, come over to Australia or any Asian

I was first introduced to custard apples when I was in Australia and I loved them immediately. Unfortunately, they're hard to find and ridiculously expensive here :(

I'm amazed you could get such close shots of the possum. Where I live there are raccoons which sometimes get into people's homes. So far I've been lucky not to have any because they're a bit of a pest. <BR/><BR/>Never heard of custard apple. It looks so interesting. You know I'm excited to learn about something new!

A cute possum you 'caught' Anh :p<BR/><BR/>Yes, what better way to enjoy the freshest fruits, just savour it, au natural.

oh my gosh, I haven't seen wild animal in such a close distant, he sure loved your camera :D <BR/>I know how you felt when you discovered your herbs being eaten... mine was thai basil (first time success on yard), but next morning the whole shoot was nipped *sigh* But I admired that animal had the same good taste as mine *lol*<BR/>And the custard apple! Anh!!! You're fantastic, you bring me

Amazing photos of your little possum, Anh! I just noticed the custard apples out at the markets on Saturday morning and will have to pick some up soon.
