Talking of oranges, when I was in Sicily the other week, I spotted a bloke selling oranges from a stall. He had set it up under an orange tree which was full of fruit.
I'm no businessman, but I reckon that guy needs to do a bit more market research.
Market research
Have you ever seen Italian lemons?
They're as big as footballs!
.....aaaah!...Limoncello, made with 100% alcohol. Enough reason to go back!
We drank plenty of limoncello while we were out there. It's one of the few drinks that tastes best cold.
We bought a bottle back for our farmer friend, who is in the habit of making her own version of the stuff, having discovered it on a trip to Sicily many years ago. Mind you, she cheats: her main ingredient is a couple of bottles of gin.
The nicest thing about the lemons in Italy is that they're not all covered in wax.
The Italians seen to be obsessed with alcohol (& particularly its home made varities) & why not?!
