I don't want to be as pretty as the day is long, or even as pretty as a picture (some are quite ugly if you ask me, which of course you didn't but I'm just sayin'...)
No, I want to be as pretty as a pomegranate...now that is one pretty fruit.
Oranges are quite nice, bananas are a little weird, kiwi is just too fuzzy for me. If I was gonna be a fruit it would have to be a pomegranate. Ok, so it is slightly lumpy on the outside and well not a whole lot to look at there, but cut it open and...ohhh it is simply divine!
That doesn't even touch on how yummy, juicy, sweet and nutritious they are...
I must say I'm completely envious of all that can grow these delicious and strangely attractive fruits....yes I admit I have Pom envy!
This reminds me of honey comb or some strange lunar landscape...or a honey comb on the moon, just about to be eaten by an alien. WHAT, that isn't what you see????
Must say that this reminds me of fish eggs, like the ones hubby uses for fishing...
"here fishy, fishy, fishy...here fishy, fishy"
Yes that is a Sesame Street reference in case it feels slightly familiar, remember when Bert and Ernie went fishing? Bert told Ernie that he needed a fishing pole to catch fish and Ernie said he could just call them, Bert scoffed as usual, and then Ernie started calling... "here fishy, fishy, fishy"... and a whole crap load of fish jumped into their boat. Then your kids would laugh hysterically and you would chuckle because you couldn't help it. Besides not to laugh at Bert and Ernie would mean that you were dead!
Anyway...
Poms the weird and wonderful fruit!
I betcha Ernie likes pomegranates! Burt probably like bananas...on his oatmeal!
If there are any 'haven't ever watched Sesame Street kind of people' reading this post right now I extend my deepest heart felt apologizes for the cruel cards you have been dealt. For those of you who have been blessed by Oscar, Big Bird and the lot then I bet you can hear Ernie laughing right now...hear him?
...don't even try to deny it!
