From Ruth Reichl’s Gourmet Weekly email:
I was in California during the recent freeze, and as I was scraping the ice off my windshield, it occurred to me that this was not going to be good for the oranges. It was, of course, a disaster. That’s one reason why I’ve been ordering my oranges from Louisiana. L’Hoste farm, in Plaquemines parish, is an organic farm that produces stunningly delicious citrus fruits. But if you want to order them, act fast: The last date they’ll take orders for the winter crop is February 11. Be warned, however: These are addictively delicious fruits. – Ruth Reichl
