Lilikoi.... in the yummy form

I picked up this lilikoi fruit in my walk around the neighborhood yesterday. I wasn't sure if it would be ripe, but it was amazingly sweet (for a lilikoi that is). I didn't take my camera with me, so no pictures of the vines and flowers, just the fruit for breakfast this morning.

Alas, no knitting to report. Stopped by Aloha Knitters on Thursday for a few minutes to say hi on my way to pick up food; it was great to see so many people. Welcome back!

Oh... I've never seen a lilikoi before... but it looks just like a banana passionfruit, except that banana passionfruit are long and thin.

When we were little we used to pick a few of them and scoop them into a bowl and then stir through some powdered milk and eat it with a spoon! Weird I know!
