Mine changes from week to week. Today, it happens to be the loquat, a fruit indigenous to China that came to California in the 19 th century via Japan and Hawaii. The loquat is a delicious but fragile fruit that is too perishable to be sold commercially in any large-scale fashion. I haven’t actually eaten one since I lived in Santa Barbara. My mom just sent me some loquat seeds, though, so I’m going to try to grow some here. Call me in 8 to 10 years, and maybe I’ll give you a handful.

This is what the actual fruit looks like. It tastes something like a cross between an apple, a pear, an apricot, a mango, a peach and sweet white corn.
