downtown

sitting outside on a patio for a meal

on a warm autumn night

it began with me asking

does anyone else see bananas coming this way?

that must have opened the portal

bananas of all kinds began to show up

first, the sweet bananas appeared

it was a university pub crawl

to kick off the year and bonding event

next

the hustling bunch of bananas

the flying abbey road bananas

the hawaiian bananas

the meet up and find your bunch bananas

the girl power autographed bananas

the romantic date night on the town bananas

bunches of bananas were everywhere

all in good spirits

the town was swarming with ’em

after a while

the bananas slowed their pace

 leaving in our car

we saw

the slipping into a car for a safe ride home bananas

carry on.

hat trick.

Standard

Sure, you could freeze those overripe bananas for bread or smoothies.

But wouldn’t it be nice if they just stayed yellow longer?

Try a hat.

That is, a hat designed to preserve your favorite tropical treat.

This one’s a two-parter: First, place the silicone cap over the crown (where the bananas connect) to slow the absorption of ethylene gas, which is what causes them to turn brown. Second, place the cute knit hat over the silicone one (they secure with magnets). Unicorn and viking or watermelon and pineapple? The choice is yours. Then, voilà! Bananas stay fresh longer—and look great while doing it. Which means you’ll waste less food and money. Yep, all that from a little hat. Made in California. ($25.00 from Uncommon Goods)

what’s the most unusual ‘kitchen tool’ you’ve ever purchased?
