The Pineapples are Here

I've been waiting for this since the day I arrived - pineapple season has started! Hurray! They are sweet and delicious but sadly they are hoaching with teeny tiny flies like the ones you get off Christmas trees.

Still don't care. Love them and the fact that they overlap with the end of the mango season and the coincide with the start of the passion fruit. Awesome fruit salads!

This is taking me back to the beginning. Pineapples had just ended and passion fruit were in full swing when I first arrived. It's been brilliant fun enjoying the utterly delicious fruit and veg and wondering what comes next.

I should have kept a note, but from memory, the rough order (Jan-Dec) goes something like:

Pineapples, passion fruit, avocados, sugarcane, oranges, aubergine, paw paw, green beans, peas, cauliflower, mushrooms, pumpkin, mangoes.

Tomatoes, onions, spinach, bananas, green peppers, carrots, sweet potato & courgette seem to have been constant.

Yum yum yum.
