CITRUS

I love my bountiful citrus trees, but unfortunately no matter how much I juice, eat or give away there is still more fruit weighing down the branches.  In need of a new plan I started scouring blogs and cookbooks for marmalade recipes.  I was prepared to buy preserve jars and a candy thermometer when I happened upon a fortuitous sign, Citrus Donations.  I noticed a dozen blue bins in the parking lot of the community center dedicated to collecting unwanted fruit.  I applaud whoever created this wonderful program to collect excess citrus and distribute it to residents and organizations in need of food.  I immediately went home, harvested my crop and happily returned with my donation.
