I pray that the Lord will continue to bless and protect Tom, so he can continue to live the healthy lifestyle he is now living and enjoying. Tom, if I wasn’t 73, I’d work for you for free!!!❤❤❤

I have seen berries that look familiar but which I have never tried to taste. I learned, today, the name of a cherry that is an acquired taste, and which I love! Surinam Cherry! The bumpy lemon is commonly known in Jamaica ad Brogo Lime. I love the fragrance!

    rambutan, jackfruit and mangosteen.. thanks for the suggestion, they are on my list of fruits to try :D.. luckily i have acces to them where i live and can buy them even though they cost an arm and a leg but it's always worth to at least try a fruit once just to know them regardless of the price already tried guava and found it to be a very favorite fruit of mine, not buying it because of the price but.. i at least got to find out that i'm a fan of guavas

    Didn’t know there were other varieties of jackfruit. Does the orange one taste like the green one!? I don’t care for jackfruit but I love cook them when green. Interesting about what he said with the lychee. They do well where I live but it’s not as humid as JA and we get tons of rain. I actually prefer rambutan lychee. You mentioned mangosteen as one of your favorites. Does he have mangosteen there?
