Ladies and gentlemen, the happiest time of year
has arrived! Okay, that may be a slight exaggeration. Still, I love it
when the apricots on my grandpa's tree start to ripen. I grew up picking
them off the tree and eating them right there. No washing necessary. ;)
I remember the first time I ate an apricot that I purchased from the
store. The horror! I'm afraid the excellent quality of my grandpa's
apricots has ruined me forever to the sad replicas sold in grocery
stores. There's something indescribable in the flavor of sun-ripened
fruit. Yum! I just might live underneath my grandpa's tree for the next
couple of weeks and live on nothing but those delicious little fruits!
