a new fruit
well it's a new fruit for me and william. brian thought it would be fun to buy a pummelo the other day--so we got a big, bright yellow one. they're so pretty. i honestly liked to just look at it on the counter.
yesterday we decided to try it. b used to eat pummelos almost everyday when he lived in indonesia. apparently they can be a variety of colors on the inside. so we were all excited to see what color it would be. it took awhile to peel and get the white stuff off, but finally we saw the inside. it was a neat yellow/orange/pink color on the inside. and it had a delightful flavor. they're much sweeter than grapefruits.
i always love trying a new food, especially a new fruit.

When I was on my grapefruit kick Aaron started bringing home pumelos. I saw pink, yellow and green insides but they all tasted great. It's kind of fun to try to eat something the size of your head.
I've seen them but never bought them...they looked to big, it seemed a waste if we didn't like them. But the multicolored bit is very appealing, and we already know we like grapefruit. Thanks for sharing!
We like pumelos.
