I was doing my grocery shopping last week and came across these amazing passion fruits.
They where screaming out to me " We want to be in a story, Please take us home."
So I did, 25 of them came home with me.
I called up my friend Colin Cooke and the next day we were shooting them.
Here are the result.
Hope you like!





















Beautiful!

those cookies look soooo tempting! they remind me of the alfajores cookies, but i guess these are made with passion fruit instead of ducle de leche?

Oh My Gawd - Passion Fruits!!! I'm from the Caribbean where these grow on the side of the streets, but I haven't been able to get any in NYC. Pics are beautiful - great compositions. If you cut them in half (leave in the seeds), boil a few of them in water for about 15-20 minutes, let cool, then dilute some more with water, sweeten to taste (put in a drop or two of mixed essence), you'll get the most refreshing Trinidadian juice...

Oh, strain the juice to get rid of the passion fruit shells & seeds, before drinking!

Yes, like! The shoots look really delicious. Lucky people who get to eat these delightful creations afterwards! I also like the wall display with the old book pages. I'm too fond of books to actually rip them apart, but I got an idea from this post... Thanks =)

A Girl Just Like Mother
No matter which girl he brought home, the young man found disapproval from his mother. A friend gave him advice.
“Find a girl just like your mother—then she's bound to like http://www.4uaf.com/ Nike AIR Force her.
So the young man searched and searched, and finally found the girl.He told his friendly adviser:
“Just like you said, I found a girl who looked,talked,dressed http://www.gogoaj.com/ Nike air jordan shoes and even cooked like mother.And just as you said,mother liked her”
“So,”asked the friend,“what happened?”
“Nothing,”said the young man.“My father hates her!”
