Grade A Grapefruit

Whenever I eat grapefruit (which is as often as I can when it is in season) I faithfully dig out as much fruit from the wedges as possible then squeeze every last drop from the peel bowl. Then I give myself a grade on how well I did.

What? You too?!

When we were little and had grapefruit in the morning, we would then shove the peel bowl in my dad’s face and he would give us a grade based on how well we cleaned out the shell. It seemed that no matter how hard I tried, I could never get an A. My dad could take my shell and get more fruit out of it. Well, I’m glad to say I think I have become a grapefruit master. Thanks dad for instilling such a determination within me.
