Pineapples

Before we came here, we were having a conversation with someone about pineapples. I don't remember who we were talking with but none of us knew what the plant looked like. Well now that I'm in Hawaii, I know and can tell you. Jason's parents have some in their front yard and they look like this:


Crazy little plant isn't it? I think I've mentioned how well things grow here. To plant these, they took the top off of a pineapple they bought at the store, put it in some water until it started sprouting then put it in the ground. I don't know how long they take to grow but I'll let you know when this one is ready to eat.
