LIONS AND BANANAS--OH MY!


Clipped from our local newspaper.  This happened just a few miles away.
Nothing more was added to the photo. 
Not  even a reason for the wrong spelling of pole.
  We'll just have to guess the rest of the story.


DH and I went out to eat at a restaurant that features sushi.  
Even though the menu was well written, 
none of the raw fish entrees sounded good enough to eat to either of us.
DH ordered a burger with fries and liked it a lot.  I decided to go with
"Life's short, eat dessert first," and asked for the tempura bananas.
"Bananas dipped in tempura batter and fried to a golden crisp,
dredged in cinnamon and sugar, topped with caramel sauce, 
whipped cream, cherry and a side of vanilla ice cream."
I thoroughly enjoyed it.  The only thing I would change
is perhaps a drizzling of chocolate syrup.

  2. Oh, poor cougar! I hope it got down safely.

    A burger at a sushi place? I think I'd have gone to a burger place at that point. Of course you'd have missed eating that fried banana! Chocolate makes everything better.

  5. You should write a letter to the Editor and asked the "who, what, when, why, and where" that should have been provided. I wanna know how it got down!

    That is a very traditional Japanese dish, you know.
