Candied Grapefruit Peel

So the other morning I ate a lovely pink grapefruit for breakfast. This was prompted after seeing Black Swan, a beautiful yet suspenseful film starring Natalie Portman. Portman's character Nina is a ballet dancer and very concerned as such with her physique. For breakfast, she eats a poached egg and half a grapefruit commenting on how pink and pretty it is. Luckily my grapefruit was just as pink and also wonderfully sweet.

I couldn't help but feel sad as I finished up my fruit, sadly wishing that there was more lovely grapefruit essence that I could enjoy when it dawned on my that i knew how to candy citrus peel.
