This time of year, oranges come into the stores here and they are so yummy! My body tends to crave them around starting mid December until near the end of December as it is winter here and more colds and flu around.

I get those humungous oranges and I allow myself to eat one a day. Sometimes even two. They are so affordable and sweet and wonderful! After they start to be not so sweet anymore near the end of January I buy the little ones and they seem to be sweet till end of February or so.

Then I'm off them for another 8 months or so...so probably something to do with the season and climate here.

The first europeans came here and used to get scruvy in the winters so I guess it is pretty appropriate. I am wondering what the first nations people used to use instead of oranges...
