I love walking out and pulling the first perfect orange off the backyard tree. Yum. By far the best oranges since I planted that tree.

I love beating the snot out of uppity texans.

I love watching people brag about fruit.

I love coming home, knowing that I'm about to go out and drink to say yes, I'm done with finals.

I don't get the thread title. I tuned in thinking I was going to get a tale on how you lost your virginity. Oh well.

 

A really tall glass of cold, just-squeezed orange juice is just sinful. I could drink it every day.

The only thing I can pull off the trees in my backyard are some dead sticks and a few pine needles...

Tomorrow I'm going sledding for the first time in this winter season.

that was the first thing that popped into my head too. Id rather have a foot of snow than and orange tree in my backyard anyday though. Nice to hear that the tree worked out well for you!

Sledding is highly underrated in today's society!

I love watching people brag about fruit.

 

I don't know why, but that was the funniest thing i have read in about a week.

This is our first year in a new house with three orange trees and one grapefruit tree in the yard. The orange trees are young and only put out a couple of runty fruits, but the grapefruit tree's branches are sagging with good looking big-ass grapefruit.

 

I tried one for the first time last week and it was just a little tart. I'm hoping we get a couple of good frosts over the next two weeks or so because ironically that really sweetens up the citrus.

 

We also have a banana plant that failed to mast. Hopefully next year.

This is year eight for this tree, so it is hitting it's prime. Last year was good, but not great. This year they look and taste great. Now, in about 6-8 weeks, I will be the insane neighbor with yet another basket of fruit trying to give it away.

 

 

I swap oranges for grapefruits with a neighbor. He's got a couple awesome Ruby Red trees that he pampers all year, watching over each piece of fruit like it was silver.

 

And just for Mercy!, All I remember about my first time was I was very scared, in the dark, all alone, clumsy, immature technique, about the same as today.

Be nice or we will send back all the old people who wound up down here and there. They can clog your roads, make going out for breakfast impossible, and yell at you to stay off the grass

Grass? What grass? We won't see that until April
