Bet you didn't know this.
It's starfruit season.
Rejoice for a little while, but then remember that no one actually likes starfruit. It's bitter and weird.
No one likes it....except perhaps Teresa's daughter. She spent 5 rupees (15 cents) a few weeks ago at a street food stall for some pickled starfruit with chilies (note: in my opinion, this does not improve the taste of said starfruit). Well, Teresa put a stop to her daughter's flagrant spending. But you know us moms. We'll do crazy things to make our kids happy.
So here's how you get to Teresa reaching over our balcony with my kids' butterfly net to snag a few starfruit. It was great fun for all. Plus we got about 30 bitter, unpalatable starfruit. Teresa's daughter was thrilled. She pickled them and added plenty of chili.
The best thing we use it for is stamping crafts.
