Dean, I thought for a moment that you had sold out and become an Orange!

That was worrying, until I scrolled down a bit and then saw that you had become battered and fried.

I always assocaited Rouge with Khmer, but perhaps the orange ones are their cousins.

Today's boring musical fact: no musical lyrics writer (so I once read somewhere) has ever managed to find a word that rhmes succesfully with orange. Now there's a challenge for all you fruit cakes...

So you ask; What does the Khmer New Years 2012 have to do with Bananas?

     Well while out for a walk we ran into a  Khmer New Years celebration.  It's always amazing  the things we stumble on in Paris.  And to tell you the truth, I didn't even know that the Khmer had there own New Years.  But hey, a celebration is a celebration, so we joined in.  That's me the one in orange.

This is a temple left over from the Paris Colonial Exhibition of 1931

AH here comes the Banana part.   My lunch on a park bench, fit for a Khmer King!  They were sell these strange fried bananas ... of course I had to have one.

Boy does this look good?   We had to eat it as it is part of the culture.  Actually it was quite good.

Welcome Babs to the Banana Band.  Happy to see that you will peel right in fine.

   For the rest of you to know, Babs is well known in South Dartmouth.  So much as she doesn't need a complete address.  Just Babs & South Dartmouth, MA 02748, and it will get there.  (Actually she has banana connetion at the post office.)

Hope to see you in the mail soon Babs.

It's in your messages, Angie (I think). Dean googled it or something and the day exists. For people who just plain and simple love bananas. I do love them but sometimes wish they were magenta.

I would be bananas not to join in on the fun!

Yes, and whatever is left of him.  That one took a good beating.  My guess is someone in the Greek post office doesn't have a sense of humor!

The 67% Banana piece is whopping great. And makes me laugh.

Could be Nirvana for banana!

They seem to be enjoying a good swim!
