Pineapple Bones

Another vignette from yesterdays grocery shopping....


Conversations with a four year old....just today ( few of several thousand per day mind you).

CL ...mama, why do pineapples have bones like people...they are not amimals
Walking around the fruit stand at walmart
me...honey, itsa core in the center...it's not a real bone inside like people and chicken (she's watched me debone chicken)
CL...but it IS like a bone! It's like my back's bone up my middle and i saw u cut it out of the middle of the pineapple!
me....sigh. i guess it is baby. And it has scales on the outside like an alligator too.
CL....with a deep southern drawl and very happy smile, "Yeeeeah!"
