No Scurvy Pirates Here
If there is something we are not deficient in around here – it is Vitamin C. We Lu-HUV mandarin orange season. Bring it.
When I see those boxes of little orange orbs my toes go “on point”, my arms form an “O” above my head and lightly I flitter to grab me one of them boxes. I love them most because anyone can peel them (read: I don’t have to unwrap, slice, peel, mold or stir), and the kids are WILD about them. W to the I to the L to the D.
Oh, and you know the question that comes with any snack, “Can I have 2???!!!” I cooly answer, “Hmmmm… Ok, I guess. Go ahead.” It’s a psychological game I play, like it’s the equivalent to a brownie or monster cookie. Yeah, let’s splurge kids – have TWO oranges!

I too love love love Mandarins too! How can you not love a fruit that’s so neat and easy to eat.
We love the “boxes of little orange orbs”, too! Funny, we live in FL and I won’t eat a FL orange, but I’ll eat an entire box of the the mini orange wonders
… saw you on the Blog 365 Mega Feed
I love the way my hands smell after I’ve eaten an orange… this fruit may put Calvin Klein out of business someday.
YUM!!! I am finishing my fourth box of Clementines in the past 6 weeks.
(I don’t eat regular PR oranges. And we have three trees.)
