List your top 5 favorite fruits.

Wow, this is a challenge. There are so many yummy fruits available to satisfy the palate. Now I tend to eat fruit for the medicinal benefits more than the pure enjoyment. Lemons are great for just that and they make wonderful garland in cocktails.

So to get the most quality out of the fruits I enjoy, I strive to eat what is seasonal. I love a good bowl of gazpacho and I make mine with watermelon. A product of summertime produce, along with that strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries for berry salsas. I like to get extra berries to freeze so I have fresh berries in the winter months. However, my top five favorite is going to be the apple. For the adage is true, an apple day keeps the doctor away.
