New Consultant Training: What to Do?

[Admin Greg]

My sister is a fruit farmer. I love almost anything that is fresh and in season. Currently- apples. Of all kinds.

I'm jelous!! I wish Cherries were in season. Haven't had them in awhile.

 

[Jennie4PC]

FRESH Pineapple. Once I tried it I cannot stand the canned.

I love strawberries and grapes too. I love kiwi's but hate trying to peal the little things.

I like peaches but I want fresh grown Chilton County Alabama peaches, not the ones out of the store.

I do not like apples b/c they taste so grainy to me.

When you peel a kiwi cut the tops off stick a spoon at the very edge and take the spoon around the skin and it peels it quite nicely

Thanks! I will have to try this. I am going grocery shopping tonight.

I love fruit when in season, but I can't ever remember what IS in season. Especially when we get fruit from overseas where they are in different seasons than us. And prices used to help, but they don't anymore.

 

[cmdtrgd]

Ohh...anything I can pick myself is great! I make applesauce from apples I pick from a local orchard - no sugar and very minimal seasoning - the best applesauce ever!

I love Pineapple but they make my tongue break out. I love Strawberries and Red Seedless grapes. Kiwi is good too!!!

 

[TwinGirlsMom]

Mango! I used to have trees in my backyard...*sigh*

Someone said they used the citrus peeler on kiwis. Have you tried that?

 

[chefheidi2003]

I love Strawberries and Bananas...my mom and I usually go pick strawberries every year...my SIL and her mom go every year as well...I can't wait for my Neice to get bigger so that the 5 of us can go together...long story just to tell you that I love Strawberries.

 

[chef_kimmo]

Strawberries, peaches, avocados

as someone else said if you consider tomatoes - love them home grown tomatoes

 

[chefkristin]

OH-I LOVE AVOCADOS!!! I just started eating them summer of 2006. I never had one before that.

I have two cherry trees, but they aren't mature enough yet to produce fruit. I like all fruit, as long as it's fresh (I love to go to the pick-your-own orchards and farms). My current kick is bananas, strawberries, and fresh squeezed orange juice done up in the Magic Bullet every morning for breakfast ... gives me a fairly decent energy boost.

My kids (me too!) are all addicted to avocados and mangoes ... as well as papaya, guava, and star fruit ... all the things that make dh cringe!

I have a magic bullet too!! :cheerleader:

I have a magic bullet too!! :cheerleader:

That was my early Christmas present ... I'm wondering what I ever did without it!!!

 

[DebPC]

I try and eat an apple a day but my favorites are probably really good quality strawberries. I hate the red on the outside, white and hard on the inside ones that are in the grocery stores most of the time.

 

[missydivine]

Yummy really good strawberries, you can't beat that one. Or fresh pineapple.

So do you like the magic bullet?

 

[karaboo2]

So do you like the magic bullet?

I love it ... I like to make smoothies in the morning, and it does them quick as anything, without me having to do the 'push&shake' that I used to have to do with my regular blender.

Although the main reason I bought it was to puree food for Thomas, as he never liked the jarred baby food ... so a serving of pasta or whatever only takes 5 seconds to prepare for him!
