there is always something so romantic and thrilling about picking fruits straight off the tree especially if we just we normally only find them in supermarkets. i remember when i was younger my grandfather showed me a mangosteen tree in this property of ours and i really went off to pick a couple of fruits, even if they were still unripe. i was so giddy on our way home.

MM it was great that there were several varieties…looked fun …bettyq–love cherries although I have never experienced picking them..so delish…but so expensive here…and rare at the supermarket…so when I travel and see some…I surely buy…cherries –well ripened –are so good….love them…

MM, I have a single Fuji Apple tree in my backyard, and the fruit are just about ripe, come first week of October they are ready for picking, they are so good sweet and crunchy and comparable to the Gala variety. I also have a single Asian pear variety and they are all gone, my siblings picked them off already. And yes nothing can beat eating the apple just picked from the tree.

Esubijao: Staccato season is around mid-July over here. When you see the Lapins out in the markets, Staccato is not far behind. You can’t miss them…they are dark, almost black…and as Moni would say…GINORMOUS!!!!

@bettyq: thanks for the tip on STACCATO. I don't know if I've had them before ... most of the time I just pop them cherries into my mouth without bothering to know what kind they are, hehe. I know about the BING and RANIER varieties, though. 'Didn't know they have sooo many cherry varieties.
