Daughter's extended in-law family came Saturday to celebrate FIVE
birthdays in the family w/in 2 weeks.

One of the aunts brought her a grocery bag stuffed full of ripe
passionfruit. The one I ate was heavenly. I don't know what she's
planning for the harvest, I suspect a sauce.

We went to another friend's gathering yesterday. They had a pomegranate
tree loaded with bright red fruit. It looked like something decorated
for Christmas. Some of the poms were in clusters looking like huge
grapes. They said the fruit usually doesn't redden like that until
November. (Global warming, maybe?)

Holy cow, I love it here.
