Freshly Squeezed

A few of the benefits of our (usually) mild winter weather is the delicious citrus we get to enjoy. Here the kids are after picking grapefruit off the tree for breakfast (so yummy...)


And fresh-squeezed orange juice has got to be one of our favorite things about living in Florida! One of Brady's early morning teachers left a bag of Honeybell oranges on his car after he'd visited a seminary class. These are as good as anything you've ever tasted and we guard them like gold around here. Brady squeezed them for juice, along with some other oranges from a neighbor's tree, and we savored every swallow.

The celestial Honeybells
The terrestial Valencia oranges


It doesn't get much better than this. And boy does it make it hard to go back to concentrate!
