Is it ripe?

2012年7月17日 (火)

I bought a grapefruit last week because it was only 50 yen.  But then instead of eating it right away, I left it on my desk for a week.  Actually I sort of forgot about it until today…
But then when I peeled it and tried some it was really sweet and delicious!
I was reminded of how important it is to let things get ripe before eating them.

I  also recently bought an avodado, (or alligator pear as we sometimes say in the States), but I ate it the same day I got it.  It was hard and not so tasty.  I should have waited longer before I ate it. Next time I’ll try not to rush.
