Alece – I think that the red is what caught my eye in the first place. It just begged to be captured on film.
Annie – I plucked off the pieces with my hands; but I was going to be reading as I munched so I needed to use a spoon (a metal spoon in a glass bowl, thankyouverymuch). Plus, I wanted to avoid the purple fingernails. I had taken a few pictures of arrangements with the bowl of pomegranate, but was not pleased with them. Bored with it I decided to sit down and read. So I put the fruit by my bed. When I reached over for my glasses from the embroidered glasses case you see there I saw the composition and said to myself, “That is it.” Click, click and voila; a picture that I didn’t even have to tweak.
haha! Really? Au naturale? Sweet! And I’m thinking …. I must not have ever had a ripe pomegranate. Because they’ve never been messy any time I’ve eaten them. Probably not as juicy as they could be! Hmmmm … makes me wish they made my fingers purple.
Hi Angie – Annie shared about your site. My daughter is in China getting our 2nd international grand child! Mama and I think our cups are quite full and are sharing as much as we can!
Annie – I make my kids change into grubby clothes when they want to eat pomegranates and then they compare to see who is the purplest of them all.
Indian Lake Papa – Wow! Congratulations on your new grandchild! That is wonderful. I am glad to hear that you are sharing from your cup of knowledge, experience and love. It’s nice to see your comment here. You are welcome back any time.
love the photo. is that the note that i sent you? i think that pomegranents are beautiful, and any time that i can get my hands on some home made pomegranent jelly i buy it, but i dont like to eat them fresh. nice flavor but not a good flesh to seed ratio. too frusterating.
Shawn – Yes! That is the note you sent us! I eat the seeds. Just scoop up a spoonful and then munch and crunch away. I used to spit out the seeds and that was indeed frustrating. Now I just eat it all together.
Hi @ngie, just stopping by to say hi! I’m just catching up on your posts, and have to tell you about how this one inspired me . I saw this photo a day or so ago and thought how gorgeous it is (I love colour red), but more than anything I thought, wow, those pomegranates look amazing. I’d never tried them before so I went out especially and bought some for dessert last night – they are so nice! I’ve gone and bought two more, ha, ha!
Birgit – Amazing to know that one image coupled with a relationship of trust between two people on completely opposite sides of the world could cause such an impulse to action. I am glad to know you like them! I bought a bunch more today as well.
You know I was thinking should I ask if she has a new camera as that shot is FAB..then I saw your last comment! Oh how I miss the delicious, vibrant, exotic fruit of Bolivia…not long now…and I wont have to druel over photos!

Did you arrange that? Or is your nightstand always so picturesque?
Pomegranate? Do you eat them with a spoon? I always dig in with my hands.
i love the thread of red woven throughout. so pretty!
Luscious pomegranate! From the trip to the market that you “vlogged” for us?
Nice!
Mo – Thanks!
Marti – Yes! It was soooooo luscious.

@ngie … LOVE THE NEW LOOK! I haven’t visited you in a while.. .and this new design ROCKS.
Love this pic… although I’ve never eaten pomegranates … lol
I love this too. And I was so proud that I knew it was pomegranate. (Not much knowledge of fruits beyond apples, bananas, and oranges.)
Great photo!
Bajan – I am glad you like the look. Thanks!
Steph Steph bo Beph – You are so cool.
great picture with a relax feel.

Beautiful. Red always brightens my mood. I’ve never even tasted a pomegranate, believe it or not.

Wow, that looks like something from a magazine…love the color!
I love my new camera; the quality of the photos is just so much more delectable. Thanks for the compliment, Julie.
