Juice

• Juice vendors throughout the city squeeze fruit and vegetable juice to order. Fresh fruit temptation (http://jerusalemblog.blogspot.com/2006/06/abundance.html ) makes choosing difficult at the tiny bars, open to the sidewalk.
• Melon is very sweet. It’s good with orange. Persimmon (each fruit in its season) is also extra sweet. I look on it as dessert.
• Pointing always works, and English often. Orange=top-ooz- eem. Melon=mee-lone. Persimmon=ah-far-see-moan.
