FRUIT PICKING UPDATE
As some of you might recall, I blogged a week or two ago about a man who rang our doorbell and asked to pick some of our kumquats from our tree. I was caught off-guard and let him take as many as he liked, although I later regretted it. Karena was a little upset that a man would drive to our house just to pick this fruit from our tree.
But this past Tuesday, he again appeared at our doorstep. But this time, there was no bag in his hand and he wasn't asking to pick fruit. Instead, he had a jar of kumquat jelly he had made. He wanted to thank us for letting him pick from our tree by giving us a jar.
I felt a little embarassed about being so upset about his picking from our tree after he did such a kind thing for us in return.
