One afternoon Piper and her friend Kent came over to play one of their usual afternoon games of Risk. Kent was rather upset because he had just accidentally bought a bag of grapefruit instead a bag of oranges. "I hate grapefruit," he said grumpily. I made him a Tarte Tatin and he felt better.
But the point of this story was that Piper and I wound up with a bag of grapefruit that has been sitting in our fridge for a good long while without much use. I enjoy a half of grapefruit with breakfast on special occasions, but usually breakfast consists of the same cereal combination I've been eating since age five.* Don't mess with a good thing, that's my motto!
