There are a couple of indicators of ripeness:
they go a bit squashy and possibly look [...]

London, tomorrow: Festival of Life

Spicy sauce recipe

I think I talked with Ross about you and Funky Raw (I think the topic was wildfood and eating sustainable and raw at the same time) and saw a pic of You. Your were like a wise wizard of some kind in that dream.
Hope to meet up with you if you come again next summer.
Rawolutionary Yours,
Pierre
You were in a dream of mine just before I started to eat raw, in july I think. You were living in a hut (on the island of Gotland, east of the swedish mainland) and teaching me and my wife about rawfood. ;)
I have a friend named Ross - who knows you, btw.
