My Conservation Dept. kids in the BOCES Vo-Tech school where I work had a fresh fruit sale. Well, I had missed the sale last year having no students in that department. I made up for lost time this year. Grapefruit is kind of expensive when purchased in the grocery store, and they are not always in season. I bought two big boxes along with two boxes of Tangelos. Oh, are they sweet and delicious. I have a juicer in the classroom and the kids make their own orange and grapefruit juice when we cook breakfast in the morning. I decided to buy Luke a juicer and bring him a box of each at Christmas. Matt found a nifty Cuisinart machine - on sale even - in the mall and we were all set. I had a little nervousness about giving a young boy such a "healthy" gift. No need to worry - when Luke opened the juicer he dropped everything and carried it into the kitchen to set it up. The high-tech trendy toys were left on the carpet while he made us all fresh juice for Christmas morning breakfast, and he had a blast doing it. I was so fulfilled.
