Oranges here are green and while they taste like oranges, they are not as sweet. If you want to splurge, for a premium price you can purchases orange oranges at the big supermarkets, shipped all the way from South Africa! Lemons are also green. Another thing that is green? Pumpkins! Beth was visiting last week and had mentioned a craving for pumpkin pie. Well, I wanted to be a good hostess and I knew pumpkins were available here, so I figured surely I could attempt a pumpkin pie from scratch. I took along a Ugandan friend for some help and even though she picked out a perfect pumpkin for me, I did have to question her multiple times. THIS is a pumpkin? I wasn't so sure, I even asked a third party in case we were having a communication issue. I was assured that this indeed was a pumpkin. Let's just say it was neither orange, nor round. I'm still not sure if I bought a pumpkin or a squash, but the pie was delicious and tomorrow I am teaching my friend how to make pumpkin pie! -Krista
