Loquats


At the farmers' market this past Tuesday, spotted some familiar looking...didn't know it was fruit, but looked like the stuff growing on our neighbors' tree that overhangs our backyard. The stuff rots on the ground and goes to waste. Come to find out, they're called loquats, and they're $3 a pound right now in season at the market, or FREE at my house. They taste a little bit like apricots crossed with persimmons. I ate quite a bit of them yesterday, sitting outside in the sunshine while Lauren played on her Plasma Car. If anyone wants loquats, come to my house!
