A little bit of nonsense for Friday Fictioneers!
.
That looks nice!
Yea, a pineapple or ananus as some call them!
Really?
Yea, it’s from the Bromeliaceae family.
Do they own that fruit shop up the hill?
No, silly, that’s the pineapple’s botanical name.
Now you’re confusing me! Anyway, what are you doing with it?
How about a pineapple upsidedown cake?
Is that an Australian thing?
Don’t be daft! Actually, I could make us some piña colada.
Pinacollawolla what?
Or a Flaugnarde, a Clafoutis, a Pineapple Bomb…
It does look a bit like a huge hand grenade!
Perhaps a Pineapple Fool’s more appropriate!
Why not chop just it into chunks?
Good idea!

Thanks to Rochelle for hosting and to Brenda Cox for the photo.
