pears
No fruit!
This will never do!
So I went shopping.
For more fruit of course.
Luckily I'd just washed the dust out of it.

I shall keep this short and sweet. Thank you! Thank You! Thank You! I am truly surprised to have received this: Laughing Horse Award from Yorkshire Pudding , also known as YP, for being the Australian Blogger of the Year. Click the link to read the nice things he said.
My first thought when the countdown reached one was....wait for it....wait for it.... THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO! :-).
ReplyDeleteWindsmoke; that's odd. I don't recall Thunderbirds having anything to do with pears. They were great little puppets though.
ReplyDeleteyou are a skilled magician, what a great disappearing trick! Now if only we could make people disappear like that..
ReplyDeleteWhat sort of apples are they? I discovered Jazz apples last year and fell in love. I am really looking forward to their return.

Hi River,
ReplyDeletePears - another of nature's mistakes. Horrible things...

I like finding new apples and found Honeycrisp a year ago. Great in season. I read they were being marketed to the American public like they were Red Delicious, but no matter. I like them.
ReplyDeleteRiver...... Some people live for fruit. I've hardly ever eaten fruit except my apricots and pears off the tree. BUT I love the bowl and it's a fruit bowl with all the little fruits lined along the top.
ReplyDeleteFruit is forever my choice over vegetables.
ReplyDeleteSometimes a simple entry is perfect. Like this one from you.
Catherine ex oh mwah; ask them to wash and dry your dishes, then see how quickly they disappear.
ReplyDeleteEC; these are Royal Galas, my favourite. The Jazz are back in the stores already, I haven't tried them yet.
Delores; fruit is everything you've described. I like watching pears ripening as the days go by. The change from hard green to ripe yellow, the red blush and little freckles.
Plasman; perhaps you've tried them when they're too green and not sweet? Or too ripe and mushy soft?
Joanne; America has different names for some of their apples (and potatoes too), I've never heard of the Honeycrisp.
Manzanita; I love apples and bananas, and most other fruits, but it's hard to get them properly ripe and fresh. There's a small "season" window when they're perfect, before and after that it's all "storage" fruit and I can taste the difference and the texture is wrong too. The bowl I snapped up when it was on sale for half price about 16 years ago.
JeanetteLS; I think I love fruits and vegetables equally. Although there are some of each I just don't like at all.
I love seeing pics of your place. You've cleaned it up so nicely and it's such a sweet little home. I like your walking about town posts as well.
