I had an encounter with a pineapple the other day. Got up that morning and had a 'light bulb' moment.. i jus must hv.. one.
After a long, difficult search ... found one.. just perfect! Wrestled it home. Then plunked the prickly beauty on the kitchen table and stared at it. Ok.. all those glorious skin has to come off..who wants to peel? Not me. But one does not hv a choice in moments like this.. it was sheer desperation.
Lots of delicate manevoures later.. walla!
Then the soy bottle stared at me.. enticing me.
Shud i take the easy way out and jus go for it.. in all raw freshness??
It be a pity.. after all the hard work, the sadistic mind nudged me!
Nothin like prolonged torture for enhanced gratification!
Hence.. a couple of hours later.. a perfect Thai tribute to this gorgeous pine fruit!
Then.. 3 hours later.. the finale.. wat .. hv a pineapple and forget the crumble? No way!
Finally, i could rest.. a day well lived! Battle well fought!
T'was brief but sweet! Till the next time .. i shall 'pine' for u!
Ok.. need to go scratch my tongue!
