I used to have a mandarin tree, and my (grown up) daughter is so nuts

suggesting, week after week, that she pick one to see how it was. She'd
also eat the sour ones, with fantastic facial expressions, each week
announcing they were better than the week before. Could go on for weeks
like this! She finally got wise to me and told me to taste test them
myself...


lol, swmbo wrinkles her eyebrows when she eats sour stuff. so citrus is
usually all mine.
