Ruby Red Grapefruit


I love them. I don't know why but Ruby Red ( and I mean the REALLY red kind) make me so happy.

And no this is not JUST because I am growing kid.

After researching various Citrus Fruits I have concluded that the best limes are the ones from Mexico (while there vacationing of course and you can pick them off of a tree)the best Oranges AND Rube Red's come from Florida.

Maybe this is where I need to live - a warm citrus-growing country. Why I think I might just do that one day. Here's hoping Jonathan shares my adoration of citrus....you can marry the love of your life but never really know HOW they feel about fruits, importing and such until you ASK them I suppose.

We're going to a friends house for dinner tonight - I am always afraid my heightened sense of smell and extremely tricky puke reflex will make me a terrible guest....ask Eric F. he knows.

Love.

well, if Jonny doesn't want to go, then he can stay with Christa, and we can run away with the kids. If I leave him the new tv, then he should be fine with it.

Melissa, I have a dwarf lemon and a dwarf lime tree at my place...one of them is sprouting two tiny fruits. They have your name on them when they're ripe!
