Kiwan-who?

As we were grocery shopping tonight, Scott decided that he needed fruit. He doesn't like fruit so this was a little strange, but every now and then I guess his body needs the vitamins and he craves it. But since he doesn't like actual fruit he was trying to get every kind of juice the store had. Then we went into the produce section and he sees this:

This is a kiwano. And it's weird. The sign says that it doesn't bruise, that it is sweet and tart and that it tastes like a banana and a cucumber. And it's $2.99 a piece, so I said no way, what if it's gross? But he really wanted to try it. So...


Here is Scott with his new favorite thing. Also, notice the mustache that only has a few more days with us.



We bought the thing and cut it open, not sure what we would find...





But really not expecting this. Now what? Well, we just paid 3 bucks for the thing, so now it's time to figure out how to eat it!





Ok, this thing is seriously weird. First, it's majorly gelatinous. I mean, you could hold it upside-down and it would stay put. Also, it's mostly seeds. There's not much fruit to speak of at all. So, like any good man, Scott figures out a way to eat it!




It doesn't taste like cucumbers at all. It does taste like bananas, but it also tastes like kiwis. And like seeds. And, just to save you all the trouble, it is so not worth all the work!

Come Play With Us!

We just got a new video game (big surprise). It's a new Rockband of a small band that maybe you've heard of before:
This game is so groovy you wouldn't believe it. It also has all kinds of stuff you never knew about the Beatles. Here are some screenshots from the game:

And, after you play this game, you feel like you know what it is like to do drugs.



Last night we played the game for the first time and we decided we needed to commemorate the occasion somehow. So we dressed up 60's style.



Disclaimer to those who lived through the 60's: This is the best we could do on a moment's notice and without a trip to Goodwill!


George


Ringo


I decided that my hair was more 70's than 60's so I had to change it. Hopefully the people who lived through the 60's will approve.

In summary, this game is really fun and you should come play it with us, and it definitely is more fun when you dress for the occasion.
