Pineapple:
A lot. A ton, actually. Most of this. In fact, I will most certainly finish it by the end of the day so we’ll just say all of it. I read in this random cooking magazine that showed up in my mailbox that you’re supposed to keep pineapples upside down while they ripen. Some business about the juices distributing to the top I think. I did it with this guy and it made a HUGE difference.
No. It did not. But I did have to pick it back up every time I walked by for three days because surprisingly enough, those little green leaves are not a stable platform.
That pineapple looks awesome! Yum….beautiful presentation
Ha….Cute story!
interesting story about the pineapples! i’ll pass that along to my mom who loves em
Hard to believe that those green leaves aren’t stable…
I love the realistic expectation that the pineapple will be finished by the end of the day. Whenever I go home and my mom has cut up a bunch of fruit and put it into containers, she always has the same expectation from me.
I’d do it for myself…but I’m lazy when it comes to chopping things in advance.
Was the magazine good despite the lame tips?
YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i’m impressed that you cut it yourself. i’m too lazy/uncoordinated and as a result spend a ridiculously unnecessary amount of money buying the ones chopped up nicely for you.
I love pineapple but I feel like if I ate that whole container my mouth would be cut up… does anyone else experience this with eating pineapple or am I just odd?

It really didn’t make a difference, but I guess it’s worth a try.

I just can’t control myself. Especially when it’s hot. I eat fruit like it’s drinking water.
Meg -
Eh. It has a lot of meat in it. So I’m sure it’s good for someone who eats/cooks meat. Not me though.

Love the enthusiasm.

Yeah. Well, the grocery stores near me are a little shady. I’m not sure I want them touching my pineapple. Plus I just got a new knife and I like cutting stuff with it. Food though. Only food.

Not really…but sometimes it gives me a headache. I get a weird mouth feeling when I eat spinach. Hope that makes you feel better.
