Avoid light-weight oranges since they are likely to lack flesh content and juice. Very rough skin texture in dicates abnormally thick skin and less flesh. Dull, dry skin, and spongy texture indicate aging and de teriorated eating quality.

Suitcase Packing Tips Use sheets of aluminum foil as layer dividers in luggage. The sheets will come in handy for wrapping damp or soiled articles when repacking. If your bag has ties or straps to keep clothes in place, slide a piece of cardboard or tissue un der the buckles or knots when you tighten them—this will help avoid creasing or mussing the clothes. Wrap your jewelry and any other fragile items in tissue paper, or in a pair of socks and pack into your shoes. Anytime you pack at night for an early morning departure, leave the bag open over night. The air will keep things from wrinkling.
