While eating a tangerine, the sunlight hit the slice in my hand in such a way it appeared to glow. I love how a watermelon is basically a picnic in a rind and how lemons are a gentle reminder that sour ann be just as delightful as sweet. I've been beading this series of snacks for a few years now to capture these feelings, transforming these fleeting moments into something we can keep with us always. Embrace the happiness you feel when you see a strawberry. Muse on how a bunch of grapes are an edible constellation. In a world that can feel like it is rotting, my giant, unapologetically oversized handmade fruit remind me to savor the moment — to take a bite, let the juice drip down my chin, and enjoy the sweetness while it lasts.
