The Britney concert was FABULOUS!
The seats were nice for upper terrace 
Morning Time
I needed some fresh fruit and Greek yogurt in my life this morning.
Pomegranate YUM 
It took me awhile to find the pom seeds but I did eventually taste them down under.
I was starting to miss red seedless grapes. I used to think green seedless were the best, but now I’m torn.
These were the best juicy red grapes!
Grape are Great!
See you guys later, I’m off to clean & get ready for the Grape Fest in Grapevine, Tx with Kaytee!
Nifty Fun Facts about Grapes:
BACKGROUND
- Did you know that more grapes are grown around the world than any other fruit?
- Grapes are one of oldest known cultivated fruits.
- Fossil evidence suggests that grapes
were grown and harvested in the area now known as Iran as early as 8000 years ago.
Concord grapes are one of only three fruits native to North America (the other two are
cranberries and wild blueberries.) - In the late 18th century Spanish missionaries traveling
north from Mexico are thought to have introduced European grapes to California.
Today California is a leading producer of both wine and table grapes.
TYPES
- There are thousands of varieties of grapes grown throughout the world, but all these varieties can be classified as either European or American.
- European grapes have tightskins that adhere to the fruit while the American varieties have loose skin, or slip-skinthat easily slips from the fruit when cut or bitten.
- Grapes can also be classified as seedless or with seeds, or according to use – table grapes for eating or making into raisins, grapes for use in commercial foods or grapes for wine or juice.
- The most popular table grape variety in the U.S. is the Thompson Seedless.
Almost any time of year you can find red and green Thompson seedless table grapes in
your local supermarket.
