Dear Orange Lovers,

I have been watching the orange tree from my bedroom window ever since I moved in which was more than two years ago. My landlord asked if we liked oranges and he told us we could take them when they were ripe. I finally did it! I have eaten about 8 oranges. Some of the oranges I shared with my sister and others added a little more tartness to my salads. I was skeptical about these oranges for a long time because they weren't as big as the ones I have seen at the grocery store or farmer's market. But I have found that they are so sweet and watery with a surprising taste of tangerine.

I hope that the excitement I find in eating and picking fruit off the orange tree will somehow help me discover my next path in life.

Consuming my vitamin C,

P.S. I am moving and the orange tree will no longer be in sight. However, I am on to different fruits. There is a grapefruit tree and hidden next to it is a lemon tree!!!
