Pomegranate

Is that how you spell that? I just ate one and I have discovered the ultimate best way to eat them: fill up a big bowl with water, submerge the pomegranate and cut open with a knife. Then extract the seeds and tear apart the skin while the fruit is submerged. This way you don't get hosed down with pomegranate water—which stains clothes permanently. SUXX. But not with my new improved method of opening the delicious pomegranate fruit. I am forced to eat pomegranates all the time now since they are selling for $1.50 at the little fruit stands on 6th avenue. As you can tell from this passage, my life is ruled by thrifty fruit shopping.

Happy National Pomegranate Month!
