    TAGS: innuendo, nectarines


I used to say that I wanted to move to Arkansas just for the eggs, but that’s not true; I want to move to Arkansas for the eggs, the nectarines and the raspberries, all of which were unlike any I had ever eaten anywhere else, and none of which is currently in my fridge *right now*.

The California nectarines are never ripe! I miss the Colorado peaches all summer long.

Store-bought nectarines here in CA are shipped green and they never taste right. Farmer’s market nectarines are ripe but rock-hard. In a few days they turn perfect but only for about 45 minutes!

So in other words, if I luck upon a nectarine tree in someone’s yard at the height of summer, I should be prepared to steal as many as I can carry, and then run like hell. ;)

Gosh, Pam, when you said rock-hard and perfect for only 45 minutes, I thought for a second that you were about to begin the story of my abs.

And here I’d worked so hard to stay in an innuendo-free zone.

@Bake: I once lived on the razor-edge border between suburbs and peach orchards, and for about two weeks of the year I and my neighbors would take refreshing evening strolls through the countryside ... carrying plastic bags.

I have much to learn from you, sensei.

Regarding the innuendo-free zone:  Ahhh, you might as well just give up.  I know I have, and as a result, get much more done in a day. ;)

Unlike nectarines, innuendoes were always ripe for picking.

“Rock hard and perfect for 45 minutes.”

That’s what *she* said.
