The joys of living in AZ at this time of year... sunny beautiful perfect temperature days and LOTS of citrus! I swear all the Vitamin C has kept us healthy and we have loved eating the grapefruits and oranges... and having fresh lemonade, OJ, and grapefruit juice. Just last night we made 2 extra large pitchers of OJ, 1 pitcher of grapefruit juice, and 4 tupperwares of lemon juice. The kids have been guzzling juice by the cupful... YUM!
We've made lots of fruit smoothies too- peeling oranges and grapefruits and even lemons and throwing them in the vita-mix whole with some yogurt, berries, ice, and a little honey. Such a treat.
And we've still had a few extra after that... So the kiddos have LOVED playing a game they came up with at their "UT Grandma's house" only with apples. Ger says some funny poem he made up with everyone holding their grapefruit in the air...
Then they throw them in the middle...
And jump like mad to avoid touching a grapefruit!!
Whew! They all got some big air! Once a grapefruit touches you, you are out and have to get off the tramp.
And they do this over and over! We are definitely enjoying all the citrus!
