Backyard Citrus
The satsuma trees are loaded again this year, and the ripening fruit is getting sweeter every day! Satsumas in the fall are our climate's peace offering for the grueling summer heat.

What is a satsuma??
Oh yeah. It's sort of like a mandarin or a clementine. A small, extremely sweet orange that peels easily and hardly has any seeds.
Joyce, I thought of satsumas when I bought some clementines the other day. They don't have much flavor, so please bring some satsumas with you at Thanksgiving time!
Oh Joyce are you trying to make us all jealous that your kids are outside in short sleeves and there is green grass???? Today there is a thin sheet of snow covering everything with more coming down!!!
It looks beautiful there...and those satsuma look so bright and happy.
Juicy, sweet and delicious is what I think of when satsuma comes to mind. Wish I had one of those trees in my backyard too. :)
Good to talk to you today!
I noticed at mom's last night that the Mobile paper had a bunch of recipes for using up abundant satsumas. :) I told her to keep if for you, unless you get one yourself. It seems like "Rosemary & Satsuma Chicken" and "Satsuma Spinach Salad" might have been among the goodies. :)
Sound effects?
Just bring a basket of oranges up here for us that yer showin' to us there. That's right..we call them oranges where your from, Joyce.
P.S. Thanks for the HB coffee. Very cool and aromatic.
Oh and don't let Jason pick them this time. Green ones should stay on the tree a bit longer.
