Yes, We have No...
Yielding to a conspiracy of circumstance this morning, it seems I am destined to blog bananas.
First, upon pouring my coffee, I roust a swarm of fruitflies from brown-spotted zipperfruits (ours, and the dozen our visitors brought across four states)-- a morning vision that conjured images ducks flushed from a morning marsh. Then, in browsing some overnight visitor sites, I come upon *BananaGuard over at The CatchAll Drawer. There seems no way to avoid reposting one my sillier fruity musings from a year ago, called Banana Republican:
"Bananas: the zippered fruit of winter. Abundant. Cheap. And for topping the morning cereal now there will be no competition from the disappeared berries of summer. You want fruit, you eat bananas, bucko. But alas, all is not well in cereal land. There ought to be a better way in this Goldilocks world where nobody is happy because bananas-- the lone breakfast fruit of months that have "R" in them-- are never 'just right' for somebody in the family. Fear not for I have had an epiphany." Read on, if you dare.
