The Market

After paddling with the dolphins this am, Ron & I headed up to the Keauhou outdoor market. Came back with tomatoes, red sugar lettuce, papaya, bananas, lilikoi bars, mac nut choco raisin snack mix, and our favorite, Lychee. I had heard of lychee nuts before and I'm not sure how they are alike because here you are warned not to eat the nut inside. They are only available from about June-August and now are bigger than the first we tried. Actually, now they look like big strawberries. You rub your thumb on the outer shell and peel it off. Inside is a wonderful sweet grapelike fruit which you pop in you mouth and then spit the seed out. Yummy.
