... or maybe week.
On a whim I purchased a few pears a week or so ago, thinking that they might be a disappointment but they were just so gosh darn pretty. Well it turns out they are pretty and delicious. I think Kyle is getting sick of hearing my exclamations of joy every time I bite into one, "seriously Kyle, you need to try this!"... every time. He's not really a fruit person, although this escaped my memory as he took a bite and shrugged. Shrugged?!! This pear deserved a dance, leap or at least a 'what about bob?' sigh. Oh well, I guess you could say I have an obsession with delicious fruit. Last summer when I was six or seven months pregnant I became addicted to nectarines. I sometimes felt guilty when I purchased them at less than reasonable prices, but it was love.
So today I write an ode to the pears I have enjoyed all week long. I plucked up the last one today with a sigh... maybe I'll go get more.
Cost of a perfectly sweetened, soft pear?...priceless. Induldge away, my pear lovin' friend.
ReplyDeleteAn excellent tribute- and I wholeheartedly agree about the beauty- just look at the blush on that pear! So happy that we're both foodies together!
ReplyDeleteAnd also, you're very funny. Which I like. :)
Ryan doesn't really like fruit either and it drives me crazy! I'm always telling him he should just give it a try and he either doesn't, or gives less than satisfactory reviews, like Kyle's shrug. I want to go out and get some pears now.
ReplyDeleteMelese I love reading your blog! It makes me happy.
ReplyDeleteSo my brother is getting married and I sent his fiance a link to lemon peel. I'm hoping you'll be getting a call! I think they're doing engagement pics in April but really how much info do you really get from brothers? Not much.
