The Grapes

In my Sept 8th post, I had a photo of some grapes I saw hanging outside of a neighbour's fence and never thought to try them. On Laurie's suggestion, I decided to have a taste the next time I went by!  Indeed I plucked off this little bunch.  They are wine grapes with seeds, but oh so flavourful and sweet, a lovely burst of flavour!  I'll have to drop by next year, lol, I don't think I want to plant my own.



On the subject of grape tasting, one supermarket was offering tastes of their grapes, it was delicious, so I bought some sweet, crunchy green and red ones.

Green grapes with seeds? That's unusual. Congrats on having such a nice experience.

This is such a good idea for the supermarket to do. It might help stop people from sampling too much of the grapes without paying for them.

Kay is right!
I'm not big on fruit, I really should eat more. Our frige tends to freeze all fruits and veggies. Long story!
Good for you!
