Feijoa time!

My former colleague Joni always shared the bounty of his feijoas with me at the office. I was thrilled when he called me up last week and offered me a batch.

Love ‘em or hate ‘em, feijoas are a NZ national thing. In our house we have one “love ‘em” and one “hate ‘em”.

We had a nice lunch at a Balinese restaurant and he gave me two big grocery bags full. Here they are laid out to dry off a bit on our NZ silhouette beach towel. After leaving them closed up in the spare bedroom for a day or two the smell of feijoas was wonderful.

Now it’s smoothies for a while…
