by plannerchick ~ First off, 10 points to the first person who can tell me where my title comes from. It brings back memories of my oldest being a little bit!
Anyways, a few weeks ago I was headed to the grocery, and I asked my husband if he wanted me to pick up anything for him while I was there. He told me, yes, I want some pineapple, apples, and grapes. Easy enough, I added them to my list and was out the door.
Once I was at the store, I got all my other stuff and headed to the fruit section. I spotted the pineapples first so I headed that way. $1 off, even better, just one issue, how do I pick a good one? I stood there for a minute and pondered this question in my head, I even picked a few up and squeezed them, why I'm not sure, it just seemed like the right thing to do. Finally I arrived upon a decision, I would smell it, maybe that would tell me something. I lift one of the prickley fruits to my nose, it smelled sweet, so I decided to go with that one. I stick in in my buggy and look up to see a man watching me with humor on his face. He then proceeds to ask me how it smells, embarassed I replied it was sweet so I was going with it. He told me he was unsure how to pick one as well. I gave him a half smile and rolled on to the grapes, picked a bag and threw them into the buggy. Next came apples, I realized I hadn't asked my husband what kind he wanted. So I call him and ask him, he wants red, then I informed him that they didn't have individual apples I would have to buy a bag. Nevermind he says if you can't just buy one I don't want it, don't get any of the fruit.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? We hang up and I head around to start putting back the fruit, when I spotted the individual apples. Grab one, (a red one) and head to the check out. I would just like to say that those grapes should have been made of gold, they were $6 dollars, and the bag was not that big.
Anyways I head to the house and delivered all the hard earned fruit. I told you all the other randomness hoping to provide a bit of amusement and to tell you this.
My hubby made the best fruit salad EVER! It was so simple, but Oh so good. He had it when he was in Peru, and decided to try it out at home. He just chopped all the pineapple, apple, and grapes into chunks, and then took chopped pecan bits, and mixed it together, then he covered it with honey and mixed it again. SO delicious!
I then forgot about the left over fruit salad in the back of the fridge for like 2 weeks, and he asked me if I was making wine, ha flippin ha!
