Ha! sounds great. I would add a little red wine to that mix. Although sometimes it makes following along a little harder sometimes <g>.

We have a tree in our front yard that produces great quantities of blossoms every year. I didn't know what it was, but guessed it was a flowering cherry. After we'd been in the house about 5 years, I found an apricot on the lawn one day. It looked OK, so I ate it. It was delicious, and I was completely mystified as to how it got there. Why would someone throw a perfectly good apricot (much better and bigger, BTW, than anything available in the shops) onto my lawn? It didn't make any sense. A couple of years later I saw a couple of apricots on the lawn, and finally realized that the tree was producing them. Duh!!! A pruning increased the yield considerably for the next couple of years, although mostly for the birds' benefit.

Last weekend I spent an hour giving it a pretty radical pruning, at great risk to life and limb. I have high hopes for a good crop this year, and since fewer of the branches are now way above my head I hope to claw some back from the birds.

Almost nothing beats a good apricot, unless you go tropical (mango, guanabana, cherimoya), and I'm also a sucker for good dark plums - deep purple!
