Keep us up with how the project goes. Good luck.

My husband is working in the place that is famous for growing lotus roots with nine holes. Why it matters, I don't know. But the fields are beautiful in the spring.

Do they grow more than just lotus root there? I love lotus root--could eat
it regularly and not get tired of it.

information overload on 9. I think it always depend on where the ego, era etc is, not an abstraction.
