~ The Pineapple! ~

"A most delicious fruit ...
spiny and thorny on the outside
juicy and sweet on the inside!
  Who would have ever known?!!"

In celebration of "Aloha Friday" I bring to you the Pineapple! : )

I would have to say that one of the most delicious, sweet, heaven-sent treats, has got to be the pineapple!  Our family loves pineapple and have it ever so often.  There is even a pinapple sitting on my kitchen counter right now.

If you've ever wondered about the history of the pineapple, it is very interesting - especially who first discovered it and where!

And for some really good news - pineapple is actually good for you with some pretty incredible health properties!!  Check it out!!

For a little treat on how to carve a pineapple, watch this video.

And if you're ever in Oahu, Hawaii ... be sure to stop by the Dole Pineapple Plantation for a tour and a tasty treat!

Have an "onolicious" Aloha Friday!  Treat yourself to some fresh, ripe, juicy, sweet, delicious pineapple today!  : )
