It's loquat season! These friggin things grow all over Houston, and without anyone to harvest them in yards and on street corners they go to waste every year. Rather useful even if they are weird, loquats are tasty and tart raw. Eat one off of the tree if it's orange and a little soft. (peel it first)
If you have a whole tree to plunder you might be interested in jams, liqueur, wine, beer or herbal medicines.
