What's your favourite fruit?

I'm eating the most delicious granadilla right now (that's what my South African parents call it) it's - also known as passionfruit. Yum.

I'm not your ordinary apples, bananas, pears, grapes, and oranges kinda girl :D

What's your favourite?

My favourites are pomengranite, avacado, guava, lychees, and mango.

I'm also big on berries:

I LOVE strawberries.

Rasberries are delicious.

Blueberries are heavenly.

I don't know why I'm blogging about fruit.

P.S I have an obsession with pink sour grapefruit.
P.P.S I'm wanting summer to come so I can sink my teeth into some luscious watermelon.

CURRENT MOOD: alert and ready to take on the world! The sourness of my grandilla totally woke me up, which is a good thing because I'm not running on much sleep.

    i've been eating LOTS of fruit lately. one nice thing about having a kid is that i'm eating lots of fruits and veggies b/c thats what i make her eat.

    we just went thru this grape-kick. we had grapes three weeks in a row; i'm kinda sick of them now.
    we love mandarine oranges.
    apples and bananas are staples for us.
    and of course, mixed berries with yogurt makes a wonderful addition to lunch.

    I like peaches. When they're real soft and sweet on the inside :)

    Ohh man!, hmm maybe it's the change in weather from the nice warm we had last week to the coldness this week. Or maybe someone else just ate a really goof fruit too :D

    Becky, for some reason I hate oranges - I know everyone loves them but I just can't take the smell or taste. I do however fresh orange juice with lots of pulp, strange I know.
    And I love eating yogurt with fruit in it too :D

    Faiza, I didn't know they had watermelon now, my mom is kinda picky on that so she buys fruit when it's in season. If it were my dad he would buy it :D

    Asmaa, I like peaches too, I'm not sure if they make my list of favourites but they taste good with vanilla ice cream.. and without :)

    Cantaloupe is good .. I never call it that though.. I always call it "orange melon" so at first I didn't know what you were talking about and had to look it up :D

    Aaliya, you didn't know what cantaloupe was? And you call yourself a fruit-lover.

    That's sad. Now I'm sad :(

    LOL @ the Cantaloupe comment 'liya! I'm a berry big on fruit, I love them all including ripe cantaloupes, cherries, pears (I started liking pears after watching that Meg Ryan and Nicholas Cage movie, where she describes a pear) mangos but my favorite fruit is pineapple, though it's prickly I love it to death! I'm big on berries too, I absoulutely love black berries, raspberries, blueberries and strawberries - they're so delicious. I'm also in love with the new brazillian berry called Acai (pronounced AH-sci-EE) and it is sooo delicious, it is described as having chocolate overtones... whats better than a fruit that has CHOCOLATE overtones! The only thing is they don't sell the actual berry here (yet) but they do sell it in juice boxes at booster juice and it is a smoothie too.. mmm I LOVE booster juice!!!!

    Asmaa, well I heard the word before but didn't know exactly! I call it an orange melon - that's a much more fitting name..cantaloupe sound like antelope and who eats that :S I'm still a fruit-lover!!!!

    Nuffy, I forgot pineapple! I love pineapple too, I even had some yesterday. I've never heard of acai, chocolate overtones you say, now I want to try it, next time I go to booster juice :D

    Huh? Do you mean the colours? I just selected a colour - pretty easy! .. or maybe you're being sarcastic, but the colours are supposed to go with the fruit :D
