The Best Oranges Ever

My friend brought over some homegrown Arizona oranges the other day and we are all smitten by their gloriousness. I have never, EVER tasted anything so delightful that came in the shape of an orange. We had to capture them in picture to commemorate their extreme tastiness before they completely disappear.

And look, miraculously I caught a picture of all four kids looking and looking happy. Uncanny.

Especially since Q kept calling the oranges 'balls' and trying to throw them hither and thither...which makes trying to take a picture extremely difficult.

Mr. C quickly claimed this pear-shaped orange. He loves it for some reason. Its name is Peary...pronounced Parry.



Thank you eversomuch friends. We are forever in your debt for the Best Oranges Ever.

  1. Love the family shot w/ the oranges! How do you get them to cooperate so beautifully? And ya, now that you've had the locally-grown oranges, there's no going back. We're in the mecca of orange groves...Scott will just pick one off the tree when he's out running if he starts getting thirsty.
