We all tried to learn Greek when we first got here, but the locals wanted to practise their English so we never got much chance to speak it. <BR/><BR/>Loquats - yes, they're a fair amount of effort for not much fruit. We don't find the skins tough, but then ours are all fresh from the tree. I don't know if they toughen a bit with keeping. They're about the size of apricots, so it sounds as if you found the right thing. I don't think I'd bother with them if we didn't grow them ourselves!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11835205817921501248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11180319.post-1116313640112091122005-05-17T10:07:00.000+03:002005-05-17T10:07:00.000+03:00It must be very difficult to live in a country whe...It must be very difficult to live in a country where you don't speak the common language.<BR/><BR/>I did manage to find loquats. They are a bit smaller then I imagined, perhaps an inch and a half in width. Are you suppose to eat the skin? It seems a little thick for it, but edible. They have a good flavor, similar to a peach. But with such large stones, there is so little flesh on them. It seems hardly worth the effort. You have been very dedicated in your food preserving. I'm glad I tried them, but I probably won't seek them out again.Lorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06322778291206842093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11180319.post-1116264483581723382005-05-16T20:28:00.000+03:002005-05-16T20:28:00.000+03:00No, we're determined not to name them as we're not...No, we're determined not to name them as we're not planning to adopt them!! Although Dan has decided the most confident ginger one should be called Darwin: this kitten fights for his food, pushes the others out of the way, and (as Dan said) seems determined to prove that he will personify survival of the fittest even if none of the others do!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11835205817921501248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11180319.post-1116247342938872022005-05-16T15:42:00.000+03:002005-05-16T15:42:00.000+03:00Oh, how sweet.

Of course, you might type them into babelfish to see what the English translation is. :) I've tried it with knitting patterns with no luck whatever. <BR/><BR/>Do the kittens have names yet? Liesl, Kurt, Gretl, etc? ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
