I guess this is what happens when I am out of stuff to shoot :) Last night I was looking around the house for something to take a shot of but could not find anything. In the garage I found the box that had a few lemons and persimmons that one of my coworkers had brought. Of course there were also plenty of screws from the projects I have going and so I did a little fruit construction.
As I was looking at this I got this third grade or maybe 2nd grade knock knock type of joke that came to mind and here it goes :
" What did the persimmons say to the lemon? I don't want to get screwed :) "
A Fruit Coma is a state of prolonged unconsciousness that can be caused by a variety of fruits....also a state of sleep or extreme lethargy induced by the consumption of a large amount of fruits.
Enjoy your Weekend and Stay Safe!!!

The tangerine/naartjie/satsuma has a leathery skin dotted with large and prominent oil glands which is lightly attached around the fruit.
Here's to standing up to the corrupt Republican Party!! Here's to standing up to years and years of entrenched, systemic racism. Congratulations Ralph Warnnock, Jon Ossoff, Stacy Abrams and all of the right thinking people who made this happen. Go Georgia!!
Let me explain: Georgia's run off system means that if two white candidates split the ticket, potentially allowing a black candidate to win, the black candidate would most likely still need to face a white candidate in a one-on-one election, where the odds are the white candidate would win. The system was expressly designed to keep black candidates from holding office in Georgia and it has basically worked as Georgia has never had a black U.S Senator before Ralph Warnnock. Ain't America great?
Fruit chaat is the Pakistani version of a fruit salad. Seasonal fruits are diced and mixed with sugar, orange juice and chaat masala. It’s a super refreshing sweet, tangy and spicy fruit salad. In Pakistan, fruit chaat is usually eaten for Iftar during the month of Ramadan. Fruits are also healthy and provide much needed nutrition.
The beauty of fruit chaat is that pretty much any fruit can be used to make it. However, it is best made with seasonal fruit, which is why a winter fruit chaat will have a different assortment of ingredients versus a summer fruit chaat. The choice of the fruit used in a fruit chaat depends on the variety of fruits available in your country, as well as personal preference. Traditionally in Pakistan, commonly used fruits are bananas, apples, guavas and grapes. Depending on availability other fruit such as oranges, mangoes, peaches, nectarines, pomegranates, strawberries, kiwifruit, blueberries are also added.
How to make Pakistani fruit chaat?
•Start off with dicing your fruit. It’s best to dice by hand. Avoid using a food processor as that can turn your fruit into fruit mince, which is not the texture you are going for. Cut all fruit roughly the same size. Apples, pears and any other fruit that can oxidize should be sprinkled with lemon juice to stop them from browning. If using bananas, it’s best to add them a few minutes before serving because they can turn soft and mushy.
•Season: Add sugar, chaat masala and orange juice. The quantity of sugar used may need to be adjusted depending on the fruits used. Instead of sugar, honey can also be used. If oranges are in season, use fresh orange juice. Otherwise, bottled orange juice can be used.
•Let the chaat sit: Mix the fruits and spices together, and then let them sit for about 10 minutes, and then serve. This lets the flavors blend together and creates a delicious fruit juice that tastes absolutely delicious.
Genesis 2:17 King James Version (KJV)
17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
The peaches in my greenhouse are now ready for picking. The root is grown outside the greenhouse and the branches are trained along vertical and horizontal caines inside. I usually harvest a couple of dozen. They are flavoursome, sweet and juicy. A napkin to hand is essential 😇
It's not ready yet, but soon ripe Prickly Pear fruit will once again be on offer here in the Sonora Desert as things start to get very hot. A shot from this season a few years back.
