Last week James brought home a bunch of oranges from the reduced rack so we've had some fun in the kitchen using them in different ways. I am in the process of making candied orange peel (and am tempted to coat the peels in chocolate, of course) and from that have a couple jars of orange simple syrop. The boys really enjoyed the process of putting the oranges through the juicer (along with a few grapes just because) and have been enjoying the product almost as much. I'm thinking of a way to use the left-over pulp and, if I do, every last bit of those oranges will be used and enjoyed in some way.
Of course, just eating the oranges and composting the peel (or using them as a natural air-freshener) uses the entire orange and is a lot less labour-intensive but it's nice to try something different and a little more ambitious every once in a while!
