WPC: Well rounded

I might have had this post almost ready before I even saw this week’s WPC theme, but there is something rounded on every photo so it more than fits.

After having missed out on the challenge twice for no good reason, I had a glance at this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge theme that has been just announced. Any which way I look, the roundness is definitely present. It’s the season.

While waiting for “pasta chic” to become a thing, carefully preserving my roundness until it starts trending (hihi), here is a fruit that was supposedly the original fruit of knowledge, never mind the apple that wasn’t common in that region. It seems mighty knowledgeable to me. Not to mention positively over the top with its colour, shape and taste. Eating it is like popping tiny oranges, only better. And I lived all my life away from it.

So it happened that last weekend when we were in Rome, first I read a book by a Croatian writer with it on the cover and then got the real thing from the magic garden while bestia enjoyed the sun. When I finished eating it, you bet I stuck my finger in the red puddle that gathered in the plate and smeared it across the picture in the book.

They shouldn’t display it like that. We want to be naughty and the fruit knows it.

I got some to take back home too. Amore found a Turkish Facebook video on the best way to cut it and now I’m a pro.

Oh, if anybody doesn’t know it, this is a pomegranate. In Slovenian it is called “granatno jabolko”, grenade apple. Bursting with knowledge. Deadly. And round.

There are many growing in gardens of summer homes close to me, but even without anybody around I don’t serve myself.

In this Roman garden everything grows. Bestia seems plugged in.

Croatian author and her “Love Novel” in Slovenian translation. I read it in one breath. Not rosy at all.

The real thing has joined the imaginary one.

Explosion.

Talking about everything matching everything. As if hours went into preparation.

Round and round it goes.

And continues at home. Two more left.
