Pineapples! Gotcha, lol! Ok so I'm told this has become code for something...could be funny, could be dirty or just mildly inappropriate. But meh, maybe it depends on the inflection...hmm. Any who, pineapples - flesh, so juicy and sweet - MMMM. Wow, maybe PINEAPPLES are kinda naughty. Either way, I enjoy them so much. Probably enjoy them too much (my tongue has suffered on more than one occasion). When I lived in Hawaii, pineapples were practically everywhere! I took great joy in eating the ripe, sweet golden fruit....juices running down my chin...sticky, sweet, delicious (Whoa...)

Moving on...of course it's not just pineapples that I enjoy. Peaches, pears, nectarines, plums, guavas, honeydew, cantaloupe, watermelon, cherries, blue berries, strawberries, oranges, pomegranates (not the easiest to prepare to eat but so worth it), bananas, grapes, apples...Yes, I REALLY like fruit - but not all of them (tomatoes, for example. Yes, a tomato is technically a fruit) But most of them are OKAY by me. In fact, I enjoy them sooooooo much that I'm super picky about which ones I buy. Examining, smelling, thumping, checking for bruises, dents and dark spots - takes 5-EVER but I can't help it. They have to be RIGHT.

Choosing bananas is the worst! Is that yellow, YELLOW enough? Are they ripe enough or too ripe and will be mushy? (Ewwww) Too many  spots and OMG is that a DENT???  Hey, did you know bananas are supposed to be peeled from the "bottom"? No? Well, now you do.


So I'm thinking that I probably won't be using any grocery shopper services. You know the ones that you shop online, they get your list and do the shopping for you. I'm not sure I could trust them to make sure my produce was selected properly.  Alright, perhaps I am slightly OCD about the look, feel and smell of the fresh fruits I buy and eat. Or perhaps I just like quality...

Oscar Chronicles - All By Myself

  Hola, mis amigos. I'm not going to ask if you missed me because - well, I already know you did. But more than that, I'm not going to ask because I'm sad, angry and hungry. Okay, perhaps I'm always interested in some snacks...Anyway, your Oscar is sad. Why? Is because a couple of weeks ago mi persona favorito decided to remodel his room. No really! He took all of the things out of the room - even my bed! At first I was angry thinking that he was kicking me out! He even took down his posters and emptied his closet! But then I started seeing him bringing some stuff back. Several pairs of his zapatos, some shirts and chaquetas. Some things he even put in the basura! Things that were too small or too old - you know how they do, right? So yes,  A MAJOR CLEANING. His room was like SUPER CLEAN.  He and his Papa also bought in new stuff. New zapatos, shirts, pants. The new stuff he put into a new bag. Nice! Good storage. It even has wheels!! So he can move it around a lot easi...

POP QUIZ

You guys ever take one of those online quizzes? " WHAT YOUR FAVORITE COLOR SAYS ABOUT YOU" ... Or the ones about your astrological sign?  "WHAT MAKES A CANCER HAPPY?". .. "IF YOU'RE A PISCES YOU ARE THE ROMANTIC TYPE"   If you did, were the results accurate? I mean did they fit you and your personality? I've taken a few of these sorts of quizzes - just for fun. Astrology? Yeah, I've read my horoscope from time to time. Most of the time the results and the astrological stuff kinda fit and sometimes I'm like - hmm, that is SOOOOO not me. Either way, they usually make me think wow, am I really like that? I took a personality quiz - basically it was to determine if you are left-brained or right-brained. Most agree now that there isn't a clear distinction and that most people have traits/characteristics of both. Here are my results...pretty good but definitely missing a few Like there was nothing mentioned about me being artistic or imagin...

Golden Haze

There I was...minding my own business (no really, I was - this time) thought I'd do some note taking, some observing (okay maybe not completely minding my own business), get some ideas for some posts...and the craziest thing happened. I started noticing a few people walk by my table, look at me - stare at me really, some snickered, some outright laughed. I was thinking sheesh, what's up? No one said anything - just looked at me, looked down at my table, looked at me, laughed or chuckled and walked away...that was until this guy walked over and sat down next to me. Immediately, my internal alert system went into overdrive!!! STRANGER DANGER!!! Then he says the craziest thing to me... Stranger: Hey, yeah so are you here regularly?  (ALARM IS GETTING LOUDER)  Me: Excuse me? Stranger: Nah, I'm just saying if you're here like on the reg, and you're bold enough to advertise the merch I'm straight going to switch my loyalty to you.  Me: DAFUQ!  (INTER...
