Sharing stinks IV
Great, just great. Thelma & I had a tradition—until yesterday, anyway—that when she made her fruit smoothie in the morning, we’d share the banana. I love bananas & I’ll eat them if they’re mushy or brown or not-yet-ripe. Bananas are *that* good. In the mornings I get some, the rest goes into the blender & Thelma puts the peel in the composter. She always offered a piece of banana to Nestle who would sniff it & then turn her head. That’s cool—more for me, right? Well…yesterday Thelma decided—only God knows why—she decided to cut the banana into tiny pieces for Nestle & guess what? Turns out she actually LIKES bananas. But she’s so weird & finicky & cat-like, you have to cut them up into teeny tiny pieces & put them in her bowl for her to eat it. Me? All you have to do is toss it in the air & I’ll catch it. But not Princess Nestle, oh noooo. So now I have to share my a.m. banana TWO ways, not just one. They don’t make bananas big enough for the three of us! Like Louise always says, “I can’t have nuthin’.” /end rant
