'Serenity'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I love berries of all kinds and dislike melons, so I can't advise you on tasty fruit, Hil, but you mentioned liking kiwi. The kiwi grower near me actually recommends buying a large amount of kiwi at once and storing it in the fridge where it won't really ripen, just keeping out the amount you plan to eat over the course of a few days. So if you find a source, don't be afraid to stock up. Or if you order online, I suppose [link]
Edited for subject-verb agreement
Most of the farmer's markets around here cut some fruit fro you to try.
But when you next go to the farmers market - tell them you are single and can only buy a limited amount of fruit -- ask them what to buy. It might take talking to a few , but eventually you will find a farmer or two that will steer you the right way.
And if fruit is going bad make fruit salad -- and keep it in the fridge. Maybe not the best way for fruit , but less mushy
Most veggies keep longer-- they don't go mushy as fast and they don't lose as much flavor in the fridge,
who's jealous
I think I am.
Apparently we as a group have failed to provide appropriate encouraging gestures to those among us who have had hysterectomies: [link]
CANTELOPE!! God, I love it. Some hate it. It has substance to it.
My brother once penned an ode to a canteloupe, to be sung to the tune of O Tannenbaum:
O canteloupe O canteloupe
Why do you taste of grapefruit?
O canteloupe O canteloupe
You've ruined my best dinner suit
O lovely ti-i-i-iny canteloupe
You're smaller than... an antelope
O canteloupe O canteloupe
Why do you taste of grapefruit?
But...it doesn't taste of grapefruit.
Is this what Australian whimsy looks like?
you are not jealous , ws. I just weight a few bricks. they weigh about 6 lbs a piece.
Damn, an avocado is trying to kill me. I mean, I took my Benedryl but yeesh, I am not keen on the itchy throat that I am *still* feeling. Dude, you are a fruit that looks like a testicle, why do you want to kill me?
Hil, you can trick peaches by putting them in a small, paper bag to ripen quicker. I buy several and put one or two at a time in a bag, that way, I have one ready to eat each day. You could always experiment with different breeds of apples.

I envy you the bricks, not so much the workout.

Also, I do not envy Cass her itchy throat feeling.
