There are so many things we assume and take for granted, for example the fruit Papaya.

It was during a recent trip to Kerala that a Middle Aged Journalist asked our Tour  guide to Show her the difference between a Banana and a Papaya tree.

It did bring a smile to my face then  but I now think that there are millions ( the readers of these blogs however are  well informed and do not fall into this category am sure) who would never have seen how the Fruits they devour daily Grow.

Thus prompted I bring to you the Superfruit “Papaya” or Pawpaw ( English), Papita (Hindi), Carica papaya  (Scientific Name).

First let me say how encouraged and overwhelmed I am by all the support from all of you good people. Thank you, thank you!! Because of the outpouring of support it made me even more resolute. I have to say it really helps baring your soul to your friends, I have always found that a diet and exercise buddy helps me stay on track,  I  live alone it’s and it’s really easy to fall off the wagon, my best friend Carla lives in Long Island, not exactly close to Brooklyn but we talk on the phone almost every day and encourage each other. I feel now like I have LOTS of diet buddies in all of you and it has helped tremendously. I encourage anyone in the same shoes to do this, we will all cheer you on.  Special thanks to Elaine @foodbod who chatted with me by PM on Instagram…
