Citrus Festival - 07/20/12 - 07/22/12

Pucker up!

Citrus Festival
Santa Paula, CA

The most fascinating aspect of this festival is the myriad of citrus-related cooking, eating and drinking contests, although any time a competition involves drinking, it should really be referred to as "chugging".  Am I right? Of course.

Been stashing away your coveted Lemon Marmalade recipe?  Looking to don that Sunkist orange costume you've been dying to wear...again?  Or, can you peel avocados faster than other famous avocado peelers whose names escape me at the moment?  Well, then step right up.

If you're not the type to go public with your lemonade chugging, er, drinking skills, you can still have fun learning about the local produce of Ventura County.  Did you know that you'd have to eat seven cups of Corn Flakes to equal the amount of fiber in one medium orange?  Well, now you do.
