Today was such a busy day! I meant to post for "I Like Thursdays" yesterday but was too busy getting ready for today!
So while we have cold mornings, the days continue to get warm for we have low 70s in the afternoon. We're back to lovely blue skies and clouds in the distance.
And from the garden - a couple of weeks ago I sent some pomelos to a few of our out of state family. DGS#3's mom sent me this great photo: The pomelo is a grandparent of the grapefruit. They may look like grapefruits, but they aren't acidic - they're sweet and so tasty. While they look large - they have a large rind. One has to work to get to the yummy fruit, but it's worth it. This year we had a bumper crop. Last year, there were only about 9-12 of them.
Hope you get to quilt this weekend. Stay warm and safe those of you back East.

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness - I am very jealous of your Pomelo crop. They are, perhaps, my favorite fruit. I discovered them on a trip to China and now i search them out whenever I can!!
ReplyDeleteThe palm trees and cactus and sunny skies make me homesick and jealous. =)
ReplyDeleteAre those cactus and other plants in your garden? Wow!
ReplyDeleteand interesting to hear of Pomelos. I presume the tree looks like a normal citrus tree? Thanks for telling about them.
