Roasted Chestnuts

At the cornet of the Flower Market in Mongkok yesterday, I ran into a vendor selling some of my favourite street foods in Hong Kong. This time I bought some roasted peanuts. 

But they also have roasted chestnuts. 

Sweet potatoes. Another of my favourites. 

Quail eggs.  Gingko nuts.  Macadamia nuts. 

If you are interested, you’d better burry up.  The weather is heating up.  The vendors will be taking a break in a few days. You will have to wait until many months later, towards the end of the year, to find them on the streets again. 

Fat Palm

The hollow of a very fat hand.  

With extremely short fingers.

Bouncing on two loops of copper wire.

A palm made of palm.
