Enter the Dragon...Fruit, That Is.

We finally caved and bought a dragonfruit this afternoon and tried them out. They really look too pretty to eat, and in my opinion, look better than they taste LOL! Or lack thereof. There really wasn't that much taste, perhaps we will let one sit around for a few more days at home and try it then. The kids both loved it tho, and that's what counts.

However, the general consensus is that " Dragon fruit is rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, and therefore are thought to have many important health benefits, including boosting immunity and preventing cancer."

So we'll be sneaking this one into our palette, it should be fantastic with some organic Spinach and a Raspberry vinagrette, since its so mild. We are going to give that a try.

The weirdest fruit inside I have ever seen.

And then some pics of Kade, helping me plant my glads. He asked me yesterday, "Mom, when I grow up, what am I going to turn into?" LOL!! All our science talks about plants and seeds and growth sure got him thinking !!! What a kid.
