    A little bit ripe

    Over ripe

    I’ve gotten into the habit of eating a banana while driving my car to the airport when I have an early show in the morning. Well, I must have had my mind somewhere else last week because after the van ride to the terminal from the employee parking lot, I realized I’d left the banana sitting on the passenger seat of my car. I figured it would be mush and my car would smell rank when I returned but I was in for a pleasant surprise. The car had no odor and the banana was still firm but was a solid black. And, no I did not eat it.

    We’ll be in Portland this evening so hope the weather allows us to venture into the port area looking for seafood. Clam chowder or lobster or crab are far more appealing than either of these bananas.
