Farmer's Market find: Pomelo

I don't know why it works this way for me, but when I'm really sick I don't feel like eating right and I really don't feel like cooking at all. It drives me mad. If there's any time when I should be eating really well, it should be then, but it's not. I get by and get food on the table, but there's no fun in it. One day I told myself, "Enough!" I dug through the fridge and found a cantaloupe to cut into. I sliced and carved it...then got tired, lost my brief appetite for fruit, and put it all back in the fridge. A couple of days later I tried again, this time with a pomelo.
I got really excited when I saw a new-to-me vendor at the farmer's market selling these. I first tried one back when I was working here, before Cub came along. My boss had one and she said I had to try it. It was really large, fresh and ripe, and she shared a huge wedge with me. I loved it! Sweet, juicy, not too tart, seemed to me mostly like a sweeter grapefruit, crossed with a little bit orange. I've looked for them since, but no luck until a few weeks ago.
The ones I found were much smaller than the one I first tried. I didn't think much about it, but after I cut into it and realized it wasn't very good, maybe size matters! The fruit inside was dry and a little sour. Picked too early, perhaps? Strike 2 for me and fruit that week.
I hope they keep bringing them to the market, but at the same time, I hope they can keep them on the trees a little longer, too.
