Tangerines- not those too-sweet and bland satsumas,or the nasty, sugary, Honey Tangerines that are in season in January, but either the Thompkins ones, when they come on the market with leaves intact, or Algerians, which I havce to go to Pike Place Market to get. Valencia oranges are OK, too, or heirloom navels, but modern navel oranges are just too ridiculously sweet (and wasn't my friend who is a professor of citriculture distressed by that opinion).
And fresh figs! Gree figs with pink flesh, like Kadota or Dessert King.
Julia, and Gravenstein apples are lovely, but the season is so short
