Grape fruits......what to do with them..

I am so enjoying the weather I love Autumn

cool nights, crisp mornings and sunny days.

With all this great weather my citrus is ripening every day. All the grape fruit is 

starting to bend the branches so I am having to pick them before they break.

Cassie loves grape fruit and is happy to eat them, the boys not so much.

I made a grape fruit cake today, it is normally orange cake so instead I used grape fruits. 

I will ice it with Philli cheese and honey,,,yummoooo

  I then put the skins to work in a bottle of vinegar to make my 

cleaning spray. I leave this jar on the kitchen bench and every one knows to 

put there citrus peels in there. I leave this to steep about 2 weeks and then pop it into a spray 

bottle. I use this spray for all my cleaning.

As you can see below the fruit trees have grown, next week I will have Lemonades ready...

The oranges and mandarins don't even make it into the house the boys just pick them and eat....

Now that's fast food.
