Softly softly

Last night while on my way into the bathroom to shower I passed my Beau leaving the bathroom after brushing his teeth. He kissed me lightly and he smelt of Noi-na.

Noi-na is a tropical fruit I have eaten in Thailand. It is also known as Custard-apple or sugar-apple even though it is completely unlike an apple! It has many smooth black seeds in it. This is the plant that my Mother told me I mustn't eat the seeds of, or they would grow into a tree inside me and cause me to die.

I swallowed one when I was 7. I ran crying to my mother (for death was imminent) to be told that it wouldn't kill me... this time. Phew! Nevertheless, I still like Noi-na. A lot. Sometimes my mother finds it in some market here and she'll let me have some. It just isn't as good as the ones in Thailand. Sweet, with a rough almost Feijoa like texture but a creamier taste.

I think Beau may have used that Black toothpaste, I blogged about earlier.

Point of Fashion: Beautiful long skirt leaves me feeling tall.
Current Obsession: Getting rid of my cold.
