Bananas are good. Not perfect though.

Bananas are great. The fact that you can put them in a banana hammock is even better. If you could replace your protein intake with bananas it would be great, but you can't. I know because I have tried. I knew it wasn't going to work, but if it did, it would have been amazing. The concept was very simple. If I was itching for some protein, I would eat a banana and take in a glass of water. That ended up lasting about 2 weeks. I just felt deflated. I bought about 2 pounds of pistachios and took down quite a bit of milk. I've caught back up, and have been eating a lot of protein lately. I have put on some muscle as well. I realized I have been on a protein starved diet for years.

Another device you need.

You need an apple corer. BUT WHUUUT?! That's not an apple in there! Of course not, and that is why you need it. It works perfectly on pears too. It provides a beautiful flowery display of the fruits too. Want to eat a whole apple or pear, but only over the course of an hour? Just let it sit and pick away at your beautiful pear/apple flower art. While cutting an apple or pear isn't at all taxing, if you plan on having a few over the course of the day, or all at once, it can save you a whole mess of time. If you were doing something like making an apple pie, or trying to fill a bucket up with pear pieces for a weird prank of some sort, it would be better than having an extra set of hands around. And an extra pair of eyes too that would foil your wonderful pear bucket prank.

For the offense of being too delicious!

You have been punished by consumption! This is what was left just minutes after I got home from the grocery store yesterday. I found Mandarin oranges for under a dollar a pound, and that only means one thing. Buy at least 5 pounds, and begin the feast. I got a small plate thinking I would only be having one or two. It turned into three... then five... then 10. I then decided that maybe it would be best to eat one after completion of a chore. I found myself a little later having one between tasks on the same chore. Instead of having one after I folded laundry, I would have one because I transferred them to the dryer, or pulled clothes out of the dryer. Instead of having one after vacuuming, after vacuuming a room. It really took me all day to get anything done, but it was a great day because I had loads and loads of mandarin oranges to eat up. Also pictured is the citrus peeler I got, and while mandarins, and tangerines are really easy to peel, the device makes it absolutely effortless. Get one.
