    It was cold, juicy and sweet.

    Had I taken the time to segment that bad boy?

    I would not have that small taste of bitterness that comes with eating the skin on each section.

    California Citrus. It's a steal!
    You just made my mouth water. But not in a good way. Is this the same neighbor w/the broken glass?

    Love grapefruit!!! The pink is sweeter too. But just sprinkle a little sugar or sweetener on it and dig in for a real refreshing treat.... YUM. I'll take that over an orange any old day.

    Have you ever eaten Clementines? You see them a lot around the Christmas season. They are like a tangerine, only smaller and much sweeter and not acidy at all. They're delicious.

    LOL....that's what I call Christmas oranges--Tangerines and Clementines. They don't seem to be as large or as sweet as they were when we were kids, some even have pits in them now, but I still eat them all day long. Bonus is that they're supposed to contain double the Vitamin C as an ordinary orange.

    Pits??? We're not talking peaches here girl....

    Occasionally you will find a seed in the Clementines, but not too often.

    I can eat several at a time too - they are sooooo good.

    No, the other side, If anything, that neighbor is too good about his yard and stuff.

    I love any colour grapefruit but red or pink are tastier, and you don't need sugsr . I eat more grapefruit than oranges except for the Christmas oranges.
