They are smaller than a kiwi but bigger than a jumbo grape. The red, bumpy flesh peels down like an orange.
Parrots peeling grapes? I'd like to see that.

GNTLGNT's "Soupy Sales" reference (on another thread) reminded me of feeling old.
We were with friends, talking about dogs and someone asked what a bull terrier looked like. I said "you know, like Spuds Makenzie" and one woman says "Who??"
She's like a decade younger than I am, but I didn't realize it. I just said "nevermind"

You should have seen her with sugar snap peas. Just getting little peas out of it. Gentle with a big beak.

They're good! Refreshing and sweet without the sweetness being overpowering.
I'm going to go put them in the 2017 party.
Yeah, they would make a great prize. Winner gets a bag of lychees and loser gets audited by the Clipboard Lady, lol.
I have heard of this fruit, but do not have any on my land. Never ate one. I might be a tad too far north in the state, as it appears a more tropical fruit. Grows on an evergreen tree.
Spuds Makenzie and Bob Seeger. Damn kids don't know nuthin'!GNTLGNT's "Soupy Sales" reference (on another thread) reminded me of feeling old.

I picked the most boring video just to give you an idea of the size and how to eat it. It's the size of strawberries. You peel off the skin and eat the white jelly inside. There is a seed at the centre so don't try to bite all the way through! It's actually actually pronounced lie-chee, but I'm guessing the lee-chee pronunciation is used in America. It's a combination of a mild grape and watermelon flavour, if you can conceive of that. You can eat it as-is or use it in various desserts. Where I live people also use it to flavour their home-made ice-cream.
Only two Shakers left in the world. I wonder why? 
I'd think they'd have figured out that celibacy requirement wasn't conducive to preserving the religion. TBH I'm surprised they've lasted this long.Only two Shakers left in the world. I wonder why?
Thanks for the technical info, I was wondering about those mysterious dead spots. I have a fading dead spot on my index finger from a window scrapper cut. I keep a window scrapper with an exposed blade in my tool box but always tape the blade so I don't accidentally cut myself. One day, I needed the scrapper and after using it threw it back in my tool box without taping the blade because I was in a hurry. Of course, the next day I reached into my tool box and got bit pretty good. It's been a couple of years and the dead spot is almost gone.

We have a lady clerking for us right now. I think she's 19....she keeps referring to "back in the day" while telling life stories. I asked her what year she was referring to the other day and she said "around 2008, ya know a long time ago". No, not really, I don't..lol 2008 seems like about 15 minutes ago....
Hey, I've been searching for that one on the left!
I thought you said you were cutting down on your salt intake?
