dear watermelon.

lizard: look at it! that bird's endangered..

it didn't become endangered by being a clever and/or fierce animal, did it?

I'm sure it's plenty huggable.. I asked him what it'd do if I hugged it and he said it'd try to get away..

...and that's all

i have a pen pal named simon who is from new zealand he is one of my favorite people.
also, that fanny pack comment was mean!

 

[lizard]

Eirik, yes it is a wonderfully cute bird.

as to another kiwi:

to me, more tasty than lutefisk or lefse.

 

[Eirik]

hrrm.. haven't had kiwi fruit but I'd imagine it's better than lutefisk..

and most of the pics when I googled for the Kiwi bird were like that one... of teh fruit...

kiwifruit tastes OK, but it's really aesthetically great in fruit salads. i made a fruit salad with mangoes, nectarines, black cherries, and apples and then threw in kiwi solely for the pretty green.

 

[Eirik]

go aesthetics!

i heard that seedless watermelons have less flavor than seeded ones.
is that not so, or is this just a case of a normally watermelon-deprived preppy getting her hands on some somewhat tasty seedless melon d'eau, not realizing the fully seeded flavor awaiting her?

btw, there are trucks on the sides of the road here selling melons and corn now. some things are good in the country.

 

[lizard]

yes, half of food preparation is all about the presentation.

 

[chupe666]

also, kiwi fruit is wonderfull.
that tarty tangy flavor is amazing. i have two sitting in my fridge at home that i wish i had right now.

 

[minxnim]

i think the seedless is just as tasty. i think it depends on where the fruit is from and how far it traveled really.

I have never really found watermellon to even have much of a taste....

now today, I was reading on my break a book about marine snipers in vietnam, and read about the strange and delicious "dragon fruit."

[xfer]

fresh durians are comin' in August!

 

[ChromeLife]

durian... when I lived in Thailand we called it poopyfruit.. it smells like rectum.

 

[xfer]

but it tastes like vanilla pudding!

[lizard]

dunno...dragon fruits look peculiar somehow...

 

[avi]
