nobleheart: One of australia's top sportsmen had gotten overweight in the off season and put himself on the frozen grape diet....yep he only ate frozen grapes for however long and lost weight...I havent tried it because Im a guts and like to put 2-3 in my mouth at a time LOLOL,

ewwwwww.... I found this...dont sound to appetising

With the grape cure eat black or purple grapes. Eat them with skins and pips. Preferably chew some of the pips to release their antioxidants. Soak the grapes with the addition of some hydrogen peroxide to kill and remove any fungi.

Eat about 1 kg daily according to appetite. If a temporary aversion to grapes develops, have a few days of juices with plenty of beetroot in-between. Eat only a few grapes at a time to avoid a strong rise in the blood sugar level. Be very careful to store grapes cool and dry, a good way is to hang them over a washing line in a garage.

BerniceC: LOL I also freeze grapes for a treat for my oldest.For some reason the dark color are good for you,which is why my granfather uses only the red ones to make homemade wine.I read somewhere the darker ones are good for your heart.

Soak in peroxide uhhhhhhh yukky

Subjekt: Re: pluot..
nobleheart: The pluot does have a pit similar to a plum. Since it is from grafted trees, I don't know what you would get. If they have them at the market this year I will save you some seed!
BTW, pay no attention to Foxy...my Tootsie Roll Pops are locked up in a safe place!!

Subjekt: back to the subject
has anyone ever had fresh lychee nuts?:
http://www.lycheesonline.com/origin.cfm

if you are familiar with them,do you know their are many varieties:
http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/morton/lychee.html#Varieties
this one is great:
'Kwai mi' or 'Kuei Wei', (cinnamon flavor) which came to be called 'Mauritius' is smaller, heart-shaped, with rough red skin tinged with green on the shoulders and usually having a thin line running around the fruit. The seed is small and the flesh very sweet and fragrant. The branches of the tree curve upward at the tips and the leaflets curl inward from the midrib.

I haven't seen any Foxy. Last year, when I moved in, these bushes were some 8 feet tall and oh so straggly! I trimmed them back a couple weeks ago to about 4 - 5 feet, and should have trimmed them more, but the weather's been so crazy here in Dallas.

Subjekt: Pawpaws
Bernice, do you cut your pawpaws tops off? I heard that if you do that they branch and won't grow any taller. Oh a tin can is placed on top of the trunk to stop water getting into the trunk.

27. apríla 2005, 21:59:50
Bernice 
Subjekt: Re: Pawpaws
skipinnz: You are correct....I have seen where the tops have been cut and they spread rather than grow tall. I havent cut mine as yet because we are still getting fruit from the top :)
and yes a tin or plastic bucket over the top to prevent water getting in and rotting same :)
