Pineapples everywhere !!!!

Thanks to our ever vigilant pineapple spotting families and friends for these little beauties !



This delicious (especially when cold) pineapple tea and sweet smelling soap 
were found in Bangkok by Ella.



Greg found this pineapple stair post while exploring the historic houses of England.


And Greg spotted these festive shop window decorations in Prague, Czechoslovakia. 



And Greg also found this tropical drinks menu in a bar in Prague.



Lorraine and Mark noticed this very expressive pineapple plant pot in the Gili Islands, I'm not sure if it was welcoming them or . . .


 Rob spotted this pink pineapple in Singapore.



And Bronnagh photographed this one in her Poppy George's garden 
in Redland Bay, Queensland.


Thanks to Marisa, Isami and Sue for giving our lounge a tropical touch!!!



 Lucky Ann was given these cutters and chocolates by her niece Sofie.



Alice and Clinton brought this stunning fabric work home from Kenya.




Les enjoyed this tropical (ie it has pineapple!) seafood pizza 
at the Z bar, Collaroy Plateau, Sydney.


Anna spotted this gem on Instagram !


Jessica and James enjoyed this beautifully presented dish at the 
Hum Restaurant in Saigon, Vietnam.



Leonie found this inspiring artwork while exploring Nambucca Heads, NSW.


Jane found this dubious example of New York interior design 
while perusing a Vogue Living magazine (date upspecified!!!)


Jane also found these two, terribly hard to resist, items of furniture while surfing online! 




Alex shouted Jess this delicious breakfast in Canberra 
before a visit to the dentist, I'm sure it was worth it!!! 
It's a combo of French toast with coconut custard, pineapple butter, 
pandan gel and toasted coconut.


My cousin Robert found these on the shelves at Costco, 
note to self . . . when visiting Costco next . . .


 Donna splashed out with a chocolate fountain at Sydney Airport, 
hmmm looks like strawberries and marshmallows are the main favourite!


I bought an eco friendly Pina Colada scented solid shampoo bar 
at The Magpie in Dungog, can't wait to try it.


 And this pineapple vendor was waiting for me at an Op Shop in Singleton NSW



It's already on my bucket list - to visit Sarah in Cornwell 
- but now that she's sent me this photo, I'm halfway to buying my ticket!!! Anne

"The dining room in No 1 Royal Terrace. We were told a pineapple in the late 1700s cost £109 in today's money. Quite an extravagance!" Rosie and Allan

Wow! Great to see the beanie touring the world - would you like matching socks?
