Mandalinalar
I was going to write some deep thoughts from today, but I'm too distracted by the oh-so-delicious clementines Greg and I are enjoying right now! They're the closest thing I've discovered in the US to mandalinalar in Turkey. It's so amazing how the moment I pop a slice in my mouth, I am right back in Istanbul. Most of my mandalina memories are tied to the Tummons, so I often close my eyes and remember sitting in their salon (living room) with dear friends for a morning study of Acts. I LOVED stopping by a fruit stand on my walk to their house and picking up a huge bagful of these incredible fruits to share around the circle. Thanks, Creator God, for these amazing fruits - clementines and mandalinalar!

Thanks for the memory! and for thinking of us! The people are changing in our salon, but we haven't forgotten all of you! Blessings and love, Gina and the rest of the Tummons
