Excellent Invention

The Grapefruit Spoon. Early this morning I had a dream about eating a grapefruit with a grapefruit spoon. It was blissful. Many years ago when I was getting ready for high school in the wee hours of the morning, my dear mom would prepare a grapefruit for me. With all the tender loving care that she had, she would carefully cut around all of the edges and in between each wedge just for my eating convenience. I appreciated it a lot, but I sure do wish I had one of these special spoons so she didn't have to do that. You can buy them here. Well, I'm off  to eat my grapefruit now that's waiting for me in the fridge. See ya!

I love grapefruit, and I have one grapefruit spoon since I'm the only one around here that eats it... LOL

HAHAHAHA! Oh, Heather, you just crack me up! How in the world have I gone through life, still lovingly cutting my grapefruit, yet alas -- still no grapefruit spoon! I think you need one before you get as old as I!

I miss good citrus fruits. In California you just pick your oranges, lemons, grapefruits off the trees in your back yard. I miss it. Although in Seattle you can pick berries, that is if it isn't raining. Ok I've said too much. I do love a good grapefruit. (-:
