February is National Grapefruit Month

Yup, there's still well over a month to go with winter but it's also National Grapefruit Month.

I never got into grapefruit for some reason. I think as a kid I didn't want to bother with having to slice it and then cut off all the sections. I would inevitably get hit in the eye with grapefruit juice, which is never fun. Though I do love Ocean Spray Ruby Red.

Here's a recipe for a Berried Avocado Grapefruit Salad, and here's one for Grapefruit Orange Cheesecake. And speaking of Ocean Spray, if you're really into grapefruit you can join their Grapefruit Club.
