French Fruits.
On Saturday ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
taxlady and I went to a 50th dinner party for the wife of an old high-school chum of mine. There was wine, a meal and desert (cake, naturally).
On top of each piece of cake was a small yellow fruit that we were informed was called a "cerise de terre" in French, but no one knew what the English term was.
A bit of googling revealed the I-should-have-guessed answer that in English its known as a Ground Cherry. I had never had one before, and have only the vaguest of recollections of even having heard of it before. Anyway, it was yummy, and so I have a new fruit to check off my list.
