If you feel sad, eat an orange 🍊
do people hust have oranges lying around. We get them sometimes when they are in season enough to be cheap and nice.
I eat at least 2 blood oranges a day, sometimes 5 or even 6. They taste so damn good, and they’re relatively cheap ($1.49/lb). I literally always have at least 4 pounds on hand, but I just restocked, so I’ve got 12 pounds at the moment. Sometimes, in the summer, I buy extra so I can juice them. Then I mix the juice with pomegranate juice, and pour the mix over ice in a kala namak rimmed glass. Vodka optional.
well alright then.
I usually do because they’re tasty, they stay good for a long time, and they’re available cheaply year round in the US.
I love me some good navel oranges. So, on a good day, yes.
