things i'm loving . . . 'fruitaliciousness'

Greetings all,
So deep into holiday mode, i almost forgot to join in with my regular blog links . . . like PaisleyJade's Things I'm Loving!!  On a hot balmy heady lazy kind of afternoon, what better than a movie & chowing down on amazing fruit!!

My darling husband has been ordering boxes of deliciousness from My Fruit & having them delivered these Summer holidays.  There are lots of box varieties & he surprises me, this week included mangoes, pears, avocado, pineapple, bananas, oranges, apples, kiwi, rock melon, mmmm.  The fruit is so fresh & saves my poor princess wrists at the markets (carrying fruit weighs a tonne).  Oh it's all small local business too, yay!! 
So my children are gobbling down on the world's largest bowl of grapes . . . 

 & incredible selection of stone fruit . . . 

 The latest delivery was timed perfectly for the weekend & one minute after unpacking the supermarket groceries.  I was talking about The Addams Family to my children a few days ago, they didn't know who they were??!!  Then i found the movie DVD for $9 & they're watching it, jaws open, filling them up with grapes.

 Oh don't you love how Christina Ricci grew up.  I always loved Wednesday Addams (my eldest daughter has a friend called Wednesday, what a fantastic name).  I recently saw Christina interviewed on The Graham Norton Show.  He asked her how she remained so normal, for a child actor (miracle) & she credited her parents - who made her attend the local public high school & she was only allowed to do one movie a year.  She's so beautiful & talented, still a little quirky & dark, certainly a unique style she totally owns. 

So what better way to wrap up the week, with a childhood favourite experience of my own - The Addams Family (even if it is the modern day version) & amazing Summer fruit.  When we were little we used to eat grapes floating on top of the pool water at home, seriously, no one died folks, possibly less chlorine on the fruit than when they wash them today.  Love Posie
