O is for Orange

O is for orange.

I like the little mandarin Clementines, the fresh ones, not the kind that come in a can. We buy them by the box or bag during the winter months and I try not to notice how much they cost, focusing rather on how good they are for us and how wonderful they taste. Sofie, my little dog, likes them too. They are her favorite and sometimes I actually share.

This particular small child is difficult to feed. He eats bananas, but refuses to taste apples or grapes. For some strange and unknown reason, one day he decided that Clementines might be safe. Now he loves them, especially the ones he can peel all by himself. His sister, on the other hand, has informed me that she does NOT like oranges. She will not eat them or bananas. She does, however like grapes and apples... Go figure.

  5. I have to confess I buy Mandarin oranges in the can by the case at Costco. I know they have too much sugar in the surup, but I love them on salads.
