Dear Fruit Connection Readers,

It is always hard to believe how fast the summer season can fly by. I'm working hard at trying to remember to get out and enjoy it. I hope you are doing the same! This month's Fruit Connection contains a citrus recipe and a link to Sunkist's Garnishing and Decorating with Citrus web page. Look and you'll find some neat ideas to dress up your next dinner or party!

If you've got a minute, please check out the new gift design featured below and our website. Send us an email or give us a call if you have a gift arrangement idea you'd like to share. Many of Fruition's popular design ideas come from Fruit Connection readers and Fruition customers, so believe me, we LOVE to hear from you! Let us know what you think. Thanks!

Enjoy the rest of your summer...and follow the advice my grandparents used as the "tagline" for our wholesale produce biz: "Eat fresh fruits and vegetables, Stay healthy!"

I wanted to let you know about a great summer promotion on Inc.com: The Best Lemonade Stand in America Contest. Inc.com is seeking "kid-trepreneurs" ages 5 to 12 with a lemonade stand and a story to tell!

The grand prize winner will receive a $1,000 college savings bond, the second prize winner gets a $500 college savings bond, and the third prize winner takes home a super-backpack filled with back-to-school supplies (retail value $200)

Inc.com celebrates entrepreneurs of all kinds, including kids just starting out. Please let budding entrepreneurs know about The Best Lemonade Stand in America Contest. The contest will run through July 30, 2006.
Entry forms are available at http://www.inc.com/lemonade/?partner=blast.
Enter your kid today!
Sincerely,
Laura Rich

Just to let you know what's going on here at Fruition: our usual chocolate supplier has halted productions of fudgies, brownies, cakes and cookies. There is some talk of them starting back up again in October. We'll keep you posted! In the meantime, we're happy to introduce new items such as key lime/almond cookies, Meyer lemon/almond shortbread cookies, "Sweet Georgia Brownie Chocolate Chunk Cookies", with more to come. Check out the website often, as new gift designs are being added each week!
