A persimmon isn't ripe until it starts to shrivel and should not be picked before the first frost. Most are ripe enough when they fall off the tree. They are a delicate fruit and should be refrigerated.

Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
