Orange Picking

02.27.11
While out in downtown Mesa the other day Scott and I saw an orange tree that was calling our names. Since it was on the side of the street, and not in someone’s yard, I felt it completely appropriate to pick a few oranges for a future smoothie.
Much to our dismay there were sharp sticks/thorns on the tree branches, and we definitely both got poked (Scott more than me). Scott was a real trooper though and pulled two oranges down for us.
See the pretty bird’s nest that we spotted in the tree? Promise we didn’t disturb it!

Yesterday we used the oranges to make a smoothie (which ended up being a bit of a dud, unfortunately). I really wish we had more fruit trees in the area. Apple trees would be lovely!

Have a wonderful Sunday everyone! Anyone have any fun plans?
