Exotic fruit baskets by Yana


A friend of mine, Yana, surprised me last night with a beautiful basket of exotic fruits. The basket was so beautifully wrapped in gold mesh fabric and adorned with pretty leaves (photo, left). It was filled with goodies (working counterclockwise, right-hand photo) like miniature pineapple, kumquat, ugli fruit, cherries (from Chile), pomegranate (with 613 seeds, a tidbit from Yana), Myers lemon and a clementine. Wow - awesome!

So far I've tasted the cherries; what a treat in the wintertime when they are no longer in season locally and a kumquat, which I never had before. Both were excellent. Can't wait to try the pomegranate seeds next.

This is a great gift idea for holidays, birthdays and most anytime, really. The good news is that Yana lovingly creates these pretty baskets and sells them so if you are interested in buying one, visit her websites at:

Thank you Yana for the thoughtful fruity goodness!
