Flashback, Florida, Orange Juice, Orange Tree, Oranges, Orlando, Winter Park
Prior to leaving on our selfish year, Mr. Selfish and I moved out of house in Winter Park, Florida and rented it for a year. We had an orange tree in the backyard that would produce dozens of oranges during November and December. We would harvest the oranges and make delicious, sweet orange juice every year.
Unfortunately, we just heard word that our orange tree has died and needs to be taken down. We loved that orange tree, and it was one of the things I really missed about having a home in Florida – fresh orange juice. This flashback post is dedicated to our orange tree.
We’ll miss you and your abundance of delicious and sweet oranges. It was so nice to drink fresh orange juice during the “winter” in Florida. I will forever compare “freshly squeezed” orange juice that I taste from now on to the sweet nectar from your oranges.
Thank you orange tree.
