You Could Give Miss Marple A Run For Her Money ...
Wow ... and wow again ... you guys are way too clever for me (thank goodness we aren’t playing poker ...). Only two days of clues and lots of correct guesses ...
Or if it just the power of the mighty Google ... I’m hoping there’s no one out there who cheated and let google do the work ...



I’ve been trying the ‘Custard Apple’ this week. Also called the ‘Cherimoya’ it’s about the size of a cooking apple (maybe slightly smaller) but although the skin looks tough and leathery ... It’s disguising a soft flesh – you should be able to squeeze it with your fingers to tell if it’s ripe.
It slices open really easily to reveal a creamy, white flesh similar in consistency to a banana. I then scooped out the flesh and ate it with a spoon (but I’m quite posh!!) ... I think it would be gorgeous with ice cream ... and it’s supposed to be good blended with milk as a creamy milkshake!
Now ... is it me ... but of all the things I’ve tried so far ... it seems those that look the strangest (like the Dragon Fruit and Custard Apple) taste the best ... and those that look good on the outside (life the Granadilla) taste awful!! Or is it just me?
Now for the winners ...
