Friends,
have you ever tasted the Abiu fruit?
Our good friend, Dra.Joyce C.,
gave us this exotic, 'rare' fruit grown in their backyard
and it was so delicious,
we (especially hubby) promptly fell in love with it! ♥

Hubby loved the fruit so much,
now he's very eager to have one or two planted in the backyard of our new home
and has even requested our landscaper to provide grafted ones! ☺
