I have this wonderful friend in Newport Beach who send s me a box of oranges every year for Christmas! He is a darling, generous man. The artwork on the packaging is different every year ! This year it’s Granpa.
The oranges are sweet this year, just right, no acidic at all. The taste reminds me of the ones I had as a child in South Africa, grown in Citrusdal. Sweet and juicy.
My mom used to buy pockets of oranges in the winter. On Wednesdays I’d take six with me to school. It was tradition. We cut them in quarters and offered them round at half-time (visiting team first!) when playing netball or field hockey matches !
