Peter and I really made an effort to gather 13 fruits for our dinner table in time for the coming of another year – 2015.
Hope good fortune and prosperity will be upon us.
It was fun getting all the fruits but rather expensive, thank goodness, it only happens but once a year.
The fruits should be circular or as close to being round, which symbolises money.
We were pleasantly surprised with the amount and variety of fruits available here in London. We were able to get apples, custard apple (atis), pomegranate, lemons, limes, pomelo (suha), grapes, oranges, nectarines, kiwi fruits, sharon fruits also known as persimmon or kaki fruit, grapefruits, cantaloupe melon, pineapple and guava, yes guava. OMG, we have 15. I hope that is ok! 15 as opposed to the 13!
Hope 2015 is a much better year for us, for all of us.
Cheers.
Happy New Year!
