Connecticut's only saving grace is that summer brings about fresh local fruits and vegetables. I'm a bit under the weather but I braved the summer heat in a trip to Bishop's Orchard and picked about 1.5 pounds of them at a cost of about $3.00. Which I just finished eating by myself.
Why are blueberries the best?
1) They're easy to pick
2) They're very high in antioxidants
3) They're they only blue fruit
4) They're made of delicious
5) They're the best fruit for baking
6) They're high in fiber
7) Apricots make you angry - why do you think the middle east has been like this forever? The dried ones also usually have sulfur dioxide, which gives you mad gas.
8) Only stalinists eat strawberries. They're not even real berries anyway.
9) Apples have stock option irregularities.
10) Don't even get me started on Kiwis. You don't want me to go there.
11) Bananas were introduced by the phallocracy to humiliate women. Either that or they make you queer.
12) Durians can kill you two ways - by stopping you breathing if you consume it with alcohol, or when the 3 pound spiny fruit falls on your head.
13) Chris Kattan ruined mangos forever.
14) Watermelon are racist
15) Nothing rhymes with orange
16) Plums are just hydrated prunes
17) Cantaloupe look like those eggs from Alien
18) Tomatoes are only technically a fruit
19) The only good thing about limes is the gin that goes with them
20) Raspberries are too French
21) Sometimes when you order grapefruit, it's not a ruby red.
22) Peaches look like asses.
23) WTF is a pineapple anyway, and what does the name have in common with pines or apples?
24) I brought a pomegranate to lunch once and everybody looked at me funny.
25) Once you've lost your cherry it's gone forever.
