Adventures of Sicily and Pink

What would you do for an apple?

 

GIVE AN ORANGE...

If Lemonade was not too sour or too sweet I would replace my blood with lemonade. Are tomatoes really fruits but why are they cooked? Do we cook mango pickle? Would you prefer barbecued bananas?

 

BUY A GREEN WORM...

That little bridge on the pond with the rubber duckies next to the tree that sheds copper coins really does lead to another land. A land of shiny little boxes. I like the rustling hope of wrapping paper. Maybe if we all wrapped ourselves we wouldn’t be so cynical anymore.

 

**** EVE...

Swinging on tree branches naked is rather lovely. One gets scratched and itchy indeed, but the thrill is intoxicating. Moreover, there’s a whole pitcher of lager on the snow covered pine tree waiting for us **** little monkeys.

 

PS: Remember when money was for play and could be torn & eaten and ****** upon?
