It's guava time at my house
Guavas are falling from our tree faster than Fortean toads. I've given away at least 50, and I still have over 100. I didn't even know guavas could grow in California. I'm scooping them up, removing the skin with a vegetable peeler, and devouring them. There are no hard seeds -- you can eat the entire fruit, one juicy chunk at a time. I've had five today, and just writing about them is making me hungry for more.
Update: A number of kind readers have informed me that these are feijoas, not guavas. After seeing pictures of feijoas, I agree with them.
