Friday for thought

I bit into my freshly cleaved grapefruit and felt a mild flood of disappointment, and hoped the rest of the recently purchased 10# bag was sweeter and firmer than this one was. Whenever you buy a large quantity of a perishable item, you are accepting that you’re probably not going be eating all of that item. And though I always take it as a challenge to finish the fruit or vegetable before the mold does – I almost never succeed. Which left me hoping that the rest of the batch was better than the initial one. “If I’m gonna throw it away, it had better be good.”

This leads me to my newest saying (feel free to use it for siblings, relatives, or maybe even classmates):

‘Fruit from the same tree isn’t always as sweet’
