My dh has been doing some odd jobs for this lady for the past couple of weeks. Well, the other day he came home and had three bags... one filled with grapefruit, one with oranges, one with tangerines! WOO HOO I thought... how nice of her to give us fruit. But, it was even better than that... they were fresh from her tree!!!! He even brought me another bag of grapefruit the next night because apparently they don't eat the grapefruit!!!!!

I can't get enough of these things. I have never... I repeat, NEVER... had such wonderful citrus fruit. If you cut an orange, you lose about a tablespoon of juice, so you have to cut it over a bowl (NO exaggeration!!). I just juiced two oranges (on the medium size, not large by any means) and got over 12 oz of juice!!! I am eating 2-3 grapefruit a day and they are just as juicy. I was laughing SO hard last night because I was sitting on my bed eating an orange and I had juice dripping down my chin, down my arms... I was a mess and it was so fun and they were sooo good!

Okay, enough. I guess my body is craving this vitamin C or something.... but as I sit here and drink my fresh squeezed orange juice .... I am not complaining...

Well, maybe I am complaining... they are almost gone.........

tHAT'S SO COOL~WHAT A GREAT BLESSING :D

IF YOU USE A SPOON ,A TEASPOON FOR ORANGES ANDR TABLESPOON FOR GRAPEFRUIT MAKE A SLIT AT THE TOP YOU CAN RUN YOUR SPOON BETWEEN THE OUTER SKIN AND INNER JUICY SKIN AND YOU WON'T DRIP ANY JUICE AT ALL. YOU MAY FIRST COUPLE OF TIMES UNTIL YOU GET THE HANG OF IT, BUT THEN IT NO DRIPS AT ALL :)
