This is just crazy.
So yesterday my family and a couple of my brothers' friends took a day-trip to Chicago. My brothers and their friends went to some geeky convention while my parents and I went shopping, mainly in Chinatown. And while I was there, I found the following pineapple-y things:
- BBQ grilled chicken kebabs with pineapple (it was delicious, btw)
- a pineapple-shaped pot with 2 little elephants on it, seen
here (I actually bought that and some bamboo to go with it)
- some Hello Kitty stickers with her holding a pineapple
- many repeats of pineapple gummies
- many, MANY repeats of pineapple smoothies
- a little set of Pooh Bears dressed in different costumes, one being a pineapple
- a drink from Hawaii called "Aloha" that had a pineapple-orange flavor (found in a Chinese grocery store)
- a tiny woven pineapple made from the kind of ribbon you would tie a present with
- a red pineapple-shaped ornament with red tassels hanging down from the bottom
- a pineapple-shaped crystal ornament that cost $30
- a garnishing book that had a house made from a pineapple on the cover
There were probably a couple more that I forgot about, but I think that's a long enough list
