Summer tastes.

Last night for desert we decided to get some fruit from the truck that parks outside of our building sometimes. However, the store we get icecream at just got a new shipment that included a few cone icecreams with a chocolate wafer in the middle. They are particularly delicious and I was scared they were going to sell out before we got our greedy little hands on them. So we decided to go get two icecreams and store them in the freezer when we went out to get melons from the truck. When we got into the store we were hit with something unexpected. The smell of plums. The man that works there was setting up a display of plums that had just come in. In the heat the smell hung sweet and intoxicating in the air. We bought them instead of melons from the truck. As Jeremy said, "melons are ubiquitous" and it isn't often we are knocked off our feet by the smell of summer direct from the flesh of ripe fruit.I'm glad we made the icecream trip last night, otherwise I would not have plum juice running down my arms today.
