Tangerine Dreams



Tangerines, also called mandarins, are flooding the market this winter and in my part of the country they are being advertised by their variety. Here's what I saw brightening the Monterey Market one bleak February day.

  1. Who knew there were (at least) twelve varieties of tangerines? You, the fruititarian, that's who!
    And us meat-and-potato types feel erudite knowing that tangerine=mandarin. Parlez-vous citrine?
    PS: Nice work with the camera.
