I have just a question that may sound stupid. Do you notice some difference in the way the organic bananas ripen? First of all, I think they need more time than the not organic ones. And sometimes…Continue

Hi :)I decided to track what I am eating with cron-o-meter. I want to focus on the amount of vitamins and minerals I am getting rather then on my caloric intake. So I was wondering if I have to set…Continue

Confessions of a 20-years-old: never eaten a salad!

Yes, that's true: I have never, never, never eaten a salad in all my life. I have always thought it was a food for cows, not for human beings with a brain which is highly demanding for glucose....I…Continue

Merope replied to Merope's discussion banana and ripeness

"When it's cold like in winter, banana skins start turning brown earlier even though the banana may not be ripe inside."

Merope replied to Merope's discussion banana and ripeness

"During winter the best way to get ripe bananas is storing them with apples :) Your problems could also be linked to the humidity. I always keep fruit away from radiators."

Gianni replied to Merope's discussion banana and ripeness

"We have banana trees growing in our back yard. They taste the best if you pick them as they start to turn a very light green to a pale yellow. If you wait too long, the birds eat them. Anyhow they ripen naturally anywhere from…"

Hopefully the peaches can cheer you up :) It's been funny here in england the last two weeks because of the olympics - everyone is inside watching the games I think, so the streets are very quiet here too...Take care, Esperanza xxx

At 4:04am on June 2, 2012, Esperanza Vite - The Raw Monkey said…: Si, in inglese sono 'blood oranges'. Sono il mio tipo di arancia preferito! Ma come hai detto, non sono sempre disponibili - solo per due o tre mesi. E devo fare piu' attenzione adesso per comprare solo il vero Tarocco!

E' difficile anche in inghilterra al momento trovare un posto di ricerca dopo l'universita'. Ma forse puoi andare a lavorare in un posto molto caldo e tropicale con tanta frutta per mangiare!!! :)

Un abbraccio e buon weekend,

Esperanza xxx

At 1:51am on June 1, 2012, Esperanza Vite - The Raw Monkey said…: Si, nella mia citta’ abbiamo una festa di mele, per celebrare tutte le varieta’ di mele inglesi!

Le arance italiane sono eccezionali! Qualche volta sono disponibili qui, e sono sempre bellissime :)

Sono stata in Italia solo una volta, per una visita di due settimane e mi e’ piaciuta tanto! Che bel paese!!! Spero di passare piu tempo in Italia nel futuro.

Grazie, per il complimento :) Ma il tuo inglese e completamente perfetto! E non e’ facile imparare la nostra lingua – e’ una lingua cosi disorganizzata!

Non so veramente perche’ ho deciso di studiare italiano - tante cose piccole - ma quando ho cominciato mi sono innamorata della lingua, della cultura, della letteratura, di tutto! Adesso leggo molti libri in italiano, e mi interessa molto la storia dell’arte.

Sei a l’universita’ per studiare la matematica e la fisica? Materie molto complicate! Devi essere veramente intelligente :)

At 8:47am on May 31, 2012, Esperanza Vite - The Raw Monkey said…: Ho deciso di impararlo circa due anni fa - e ho studiato da sola, non a scuola. Hai ragione che e' piu' comune studiare il francese o lo spagnolo a scuola in inghilterra.

Mi dispiace che non hai tanta frutta al momento :( Qui e' lo stesso! Solo le mele inglesi sono buone!!!

At 8:10am on May 31, 2012, Esperanza Vite - The Raw Monkey said…: Hey Merope! Thanks for the friending :)

Non ho usato un traduttore - Parlo italiano veramente!!! Ma non e’ la mia madrelingua, e quindi mi scusi se faccio degli errori!

Un abbraccio :)
