Wonderful, wonderful colors- and another "what was I thinking?" moment. You don't have any preset formule for how a starfruit is supposed to look, really, which is a good thing. But it's also a really odd shape, and very translucent, which is difficult for me. Still, it came together with the details, and it's always good when we challenge ourselves, right?

I really love the light peeking under that top slice, where you expect there to be shadow, and the delicate brown edges where you can see how it sat under the lights- it's such a delicate fruit, really beutiful. And delicious.
