jigray3Your Favorite Fruit?
One only, no cheating. Assume best of breed, best you've ever had. For me, I think it's a mango.

JALLENI make terrific fruit salad. They're all my favorites, apples, pears, berries, banana, kiwi, melons, peaches.
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.
When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown June 30, 2017, 10:42 PM

Honeycrisp first, then fuji.

LBTRSFresh pineapple and I eat a lot of it (thank God for Costco). Cantaloupe or honeydew are a close second.

thumperfbcVery hard to do, especially where so much fruit is grown. Hard to pick a favorite out my top three (strawberry, peach, boysenberry), however....
Assuming all are at their exact right ripeness....... man, hard to pick.
Boysenberry.
