Dear Diary,

After breakfast my brother gave me biscuits to eat with the kids. This is one of my very favorite biscuits. I think all kids love this chocolate biscuit. This biscuit made by Coca Cola brand is very popular in the country. Even though I used to eat these biscuits regularly, now I don't eat them like that anymore.

Then I went to the river. It was around 11 o'clock. The water was shimmering as the sunlight reflected on the river water. The color of river water in winter is like this but during monsoon the river water is relatively grey. Currently, the condition of our river is deplorable. Due to excessive extraction of sand from this river, the course of the river has changed. The tendency of river erosion has increased and the houses of the people living along the river have been destroyed. Although the villagers are disappointed about this matter, they cannot say anything against the river sand extractors who are dominant.

On the way home from there, our neighbor aunty gave us a pomegranate to eat. This pomegranate grew on his own tree. Pomegranate fruits burst when ripe. It's an edible ripe pomegranate so it's cracked open. Aunty gave this fruit to my little nephew. Back home, my sister gave the pomegranate to the little children (my brother's daughter and nephew).

Mustard is the main winter crop of the village. My home division is top in mustard cultivation in our country. Below I am presenting some pictures of my village mustard field so you can understand why my home district is top for mustard cultivation. In my village only mustard is grown in vast fields. My village looks like a yellow sheet spread over the fields. I think you will be very fascinated by this scene.

Today I see dew drops on the leaves of small corn plants. Leaves are wet after morning dew. If I had gone there early in the morning I would have seen such dewdrops all over the cornfield. First I took a photo of the dew drops using a regular camera but the next click I took using a macro camera so that the dew drops are clearly visible.

The joy of harvesting from the harvest field is different. We went to a radish field and picked a radish from there. I don't like to eat radish. My sister brought it. These are Chinese radishes so relatively large in size. If you ask me how it tests, I can't say because I haven't tested it. I threw away the radish leaves.

My neighboring cousin was going to apply fertilizer to their crops today so he was heading to the field with a pumper or spray gallon of fertilizer on his shoulder. I stop him and take a picture. This task seems simple but actually it is not easy task. Carrying a gallon of 7-8 liters of water on your shoulders and spraying fertilizer is a tough job, believe me.

In the evening, I sit with my family and drink tea. I am quite tired at night due to roaming around the village all day. So I complete dinner by 9 pm. Before going to bed at night, I login to Steemit and comment and upvote regular Steemians' posts.
