Today, I had one of my favorite fruits for lunch. MAKOPA! I like makopa or “tambis” because:
1.) It reminds me of my Lolo Eddie and Lola Charing and the time when we used to live with them. I remember that tree being there for as long as I have known them and I have been eating it since then
2.) It’s so yummy! I have my yaya cut it into pieces, put it in the refrigerator, then I eat it alone or with rock salt
3.) It is color pink 🙂
Up to this day, everytime I visit my Lola and I see the makopas on the driveway, that means it is makopa season!!! My lola always gives me…… and when she forgets, I make sure I ask from her so I can take home some FRESH from her tree:-)

My Lola also had a tree in her backyard and we prepare it just like you…with rock salt after being cooled in the ref, we call it tambis (water apple) though 🙂 yummy!
