Did you know that carambola is a fruit native to Sri Lanka, India and parts of East Asia? I always assumed carambola was a term for something chaotic or something that had to do with lots of balls. LOL. I also thought carambola was a word we learned from our Spanish rulers from way back. I confirmed that even in Spain, carambola pertains to the five star fruit we locally know as “balimbing”
I am sticking to what I know – carambola to me is chaos. Like a group of people suddenly going in different directions. Or a bunch of colored balls thrown together all at once. Carambola also makes me crave for Cafe Bola’s balls (whew! what a tongue twister)
