Yep, it's that time!!!  The persimmons are dropping to the ground.  

 

We found these on our walk yesterday morning, took their picture, then ate them all!!!  No, wait!!  See that greenish one on the left?  We didn't take a chance on that one.  The others were very soft and ripe.  That one isn't ripe enough, and the tannins in it would "turn your mouth wrong-side out!" to quote Momma.

 

The ripe ones taste like apricot jam:  sweet, and jammy, with a few large seeds.  We laugh about persimmons being "outside food," like watermelon.  That way you can spit out the seeds, and not appear too gauche.  HAHAHA!!

 

I would tell you where this tree is, but then you would eat all the persimmons.  So like a good fishing hole, I have to keep it a secret.

 

LOVE YOU!!!
