Recently I received a gift -- from someone whom I have never met, a person who has never seen me. Well!
Who doesn't like a gift? And especially if it is something you like?

Ice Ice Apple
It is summer --- and it is SO HOT! Yes, I know, this is an understatement (and an unwarranted one) at this time of the year in the Indian subcontinent. But the same Nature that pushes us in this furnace, also provides some beautiful remedies for it.
One of them is Ice Apple. Come summer and we find hand carts laden with these fruits of sugar palm or the palmyra palm. Big clusters of round, purple blackish fruit with greenish tinge are seen around the city market places. The black cover is only the outer shell enclosing fibrous husk and inside the husk are three or four fleshy kernels -- which the British named as Ice Apple.
