Did you know that pineapples grow on bushes?

Because I didn't know that for a very long time.  I just assumed they grew on trees.  I have never encountered an actual pineapple still on the tree bush.  I found out in a quite embarrassing way - Farmville.  I played Farmville for a total of two days before I got annoyed with people constantly asking me to "fertilize their crops".  I noticed on Farmville that pineapples were growing from bushes.  I had to google this right away and to my horror Farmville was right.  Pineapples do not grow on trees.

I had yet to see a real live pineapple bush until the mall that my office building is attached to decided to plant some inside the mall.  Because pineapple bushes in a mall in Boston makes total sense. 

After lunch with Melissa I decided I needed to show her the pineapples.

"Hey do you want to see something!"

"What?"

"Pineapples!"

It's fun being my friend.

So I dragged Melissa to the pineapple bushes and took a photo.

I feel like I accomplished something in my life.  Seeing the pineapple in the wild - sort of.  In the wilds of the mall!

My question is, will anyone attempt to steal a pineapple and eat it? I feel like it's going to happen (and no I won't be stealing any pineapples, I know you must think I'm crazy because I just wrote a whole post about pineapples but I'm not that crazy).

Other recent discoveries - hood rat does not mean "someone who wears hoodies a lot".

And I also have to thank everyone who voted for me for featured blogger on 20sb.  I know it was like the pity Susan Lucci vote but I don't care.  Thank you!
