In Season and Out of Season Fruits

I have made a list of fruits that people usually buy in the groceries and local markets. Here in India where I noticed several types of fruits being sold in the market. From exotic fruits to tropical fruits which come in season and some do come all year round where it is readily available to customers. Fruits are essentially important to human health and that is why it recommended including it in our regular diet.

Fruits are good to have as juice, jammed or pickled, dried, make a smoothie, ice cream flavor and so much more. Sometimes we do need to wait for other fruits to come into their season to buy. It is truly expensive to buy fruits which are out of season. I used to remember when I was craving for some fruit which are out of season, it is really difficult. But no matter how fruits come be it in their own season or not, it always completes my day.








A healthy lifestyle needs to include fruits daily in their food for a balance diet. Aside from proper body exercise, correct amount of water intake, good night sleep and keeping a life away from vices such as smoking and drinking alcohol, a human may benefit from getting a longer life.
We just need to wash carefully and thoroughly those fruits before consuming because you may not know how farmers put chemicals and pesticides from growing their crops. So without further delay, here are the lists of fruits in season and out of season.

Yellow Watermelons

Nothing so special about it but I got curious since the outer skin was yellow so we thought that the inner flesh would also be the same, yellow. So I asked hubby to buy me one and he asked me to check the watermelons if I can detect which one is sweeter. So the traditional way of choosing the sweetest watermelon is to hear the sound when you knock it. If it resounds like your knocking your forehead, it is not yet that sweet but if you hear it deeper and sounds like your knocking your chest, then it is sweeter.

Very yellow on the outside


But very red on the inside!



I tried the usual method and it was really perfect. The one I picked out was super delicious yet super crunchy too. But sorry folks, the flesh of the said “yellow watermelon” wasn’t yellow at all when hubby sliced it. It was still red as usual but the difference was that it was extra crunchy to munch and super sweet.

The weight of it was not yet a kilo but it costs Rs56 rupees which I find costlier than other ordinary watermelons we used to buy during the summer season. But anyway, what I just did for this so called yellow watermelon was for dessert and some of the remaining part I put in the blender, mixed with sweetened milk and brown sugar and made ice drops out of it.

There are really yellow watermelons but their outer skin is not yellow in color but the usual green. I really find time to chew this type of watermelon well since it is rich in fiber and if I hurriedly chew it, I will just burp it off since my tummy is already smaller because my baby occupies it.

I am avoiding fruits such as papaya and pineapple which is not good for pregnant women and that is why we bought this watermelon. Anyway, it’s not always fruit session for me. I just balance what I eat and think only of the good benefits that it can do for me and my baby.


I will post some picture soon...need a good cam badly!
