So, I walked into Whole Foods this morning and I looked up and saw a weird yellow dreadlock looking fruit. I motioned toward the produce gal and said, “What the hell is that??”…she giggled and said, “It’s a Buddha Hand Lemon”. Huh???!! Wow, it smelled so good. I asked her how much and she reported, “$7.99”. Hell, I spend more on flower arrangements and none have the smell that this thing had. Also, I have crazy wallpaper in my dining room, so traditional is not my protocol. I’ve already painted pumpkins green and blue to match my wallpaper. How appropriate that I have this weird, yellow thing as my centerpiece.
The Whole Foods lady told me that this particular fruit didn’t have much interior flesh as you would find with a lime or lemon. I asked if the exterior was still good for zest…and, of course, she agreed. The smell is incredible. Buy this as an alternative to a floral arrangement…very weird…very cool!!
Oh my....Oh my....Oh my (said in my best southern voice)!!!
