Super Duper Fruit
Sep 23rd, 2009 by Emma
I have to shout this from the roof tops “I love Lola Berry”
why I don’t know! I am a fully cynical person who avoids all things cutesy, adorable and talkative (basically anything that reminds me of my girly self). I really should find her annoying, but I don’t! She knows way too much cool stuff! Really I have no idea how to describe her.
Her head seems to be full to bursting of all the things she knows and yes her excitable nature really draws me into the video instead of turning me away! Like did you know that there is a Pumpkin Pie fruit that takes 8 years to fruit, Lola did. There is also Jack fruit that taste just like bubble gum and can weigh up to 70kg which far outweighs the average pumpkin weight of 10kg so hey may be Lola has found a new fruit to make Halloween jack o’ lanterns.
I’m the kinda girl that loves little bits of information that may sound trivial to the sober listener but at parties gives you an audience of “Oooos”, “Ahhhs” and “That’s really cool how do you know this stuff?” So I’ve finally found my way into cool party captive audiences thanks to Lola, just cross your fingers she doesn’t run out of cool things to tell me as it’s always hard to go back to the person in the corner once you’ve had an audience hanging on your every word!
There r super duper tropical gardens in Costa Rica and Cuba – u should go there to taste these fruits yerself!
About the parties – another level of coolness would be to ask the bartender for a cocktail which contain one of these fruits (well, not the pumpkin) then when he doesn’t have the fruit you can sigh and tell your stories of when you’ve been in the Cuban jail or how you ran away from costarican monkeys back in the days and was saved by this fruit in the jungle….
