A fruity thread

BabyRider · Post by **BabyRider** » Tue Sep 20, 2005 8:34 pm

I just went grocery shopping and among my purchases were a couple pears. I haven't had a pear in months, but they looked really good today. I just ate one and oh.....my......gawd. It was one of those, juice-running-down-your-arm, perfect pears. YUM. :yh_drool

So, what kind of fruit can you NOT live without? Pears and canteloupe are my favorites. Strawberries are good too.

Our house loves peaches, blueberries, blackberries, and cold Golden Delicious apples in the fridge! Yes the pears are yummy too! I have always told my kids that these things are nature's candy and it seems they like them even more! We were eating some giant blackberries outside this summer and some of the neighbor kids came over and had never seen a blackberry! They acted like we were eating something gross. I dared them to try them and reluctantly they did. They loved them and went home/begged their moms to buy some!! LOL

Wow---that's a tough question. Just had some green seedless grapes a bit a go. I guess grapes and then peaches would be my choice.

But tomorrow I would probably say apricots & plums, or maybe banannas. Then again, I love mangos and papaya. Hmmmm

get on a boat. go out to a reef. put on your gear and go under for a while. come up with salty mouth. then take your dive knife and slice up a sensuous juicy hot sweet mango and eat it until the sticky juice runs all over your hot tanned burned body. then fall overboard and wash it off. :-6

..there's a sandbar off islamorada. on 4th of july everyone anchors there in shallow water and parties all day and night. if you fall off the boat it's shallow! LOL and the food you need is mangos and pineapple to get rid of salt- mouth. you just need to watch for big hammerheads.

LC I thought If BR went to the Keys you were going to lock her in the back of your cruiser?

I have to say mangos, though I don't like the mess with them.

I'll be the odd ball and admit that I don't really like fruit.

Your not odd, I don't really like much fruit either, I prefer something savory

Oh well I'm pleased to hear that I'm not the only 1. Give me dairy products though and you'll not hear from me for the rest of the day. mmm cheese.

Apple and cheese go really well together.

Well I could go on about my love of cheese, but I don't wanna detour from the actual point of this thread!! :p

Pear and cheese also go well together. A nice blue cheese with quince paste. Yumo!!

Back to the topic....

I also love lychees

Are you in love or WHAT??? LOL...does sound good...but the mango part makes me itch--I am deadly allergic to mango. I almost died after one bite 15 yrs ago. Had my dad not been a doctor and right there I would have. Would not have made it to ER...pretty scary!
