If you thought last week’s cucumber theft was funny, check this out. We had deliberately placed two fresh/whole pineapples in front of the other fruit on the counter … believing they would provide protection. We were wrong.
Surely, we told ourselves, Ginko wouldn’t try to steal an entire pineapple.
One day last week, while Lilly and I did our usual walk up the mountain and back, we returned to this …
Clearly, now that the pattern is set, no fruit or veggie is safe. But, it does seem the tough, pokey exterior of the pineapple foiled Ginko’s plans to snarf it down before Lilly and I returned.
It was a little bruised on the bottom, so I’m guessing he dropped it after grabbing it from the counter. But, he did not manage to penetrate the fruit’s rough exterior.
What. A. Stinker!! … or as he is now known … Fruit-Stealing Monkey.
This is truly funny! The spike must have hurt his tongue!
Thanks, Melanie… he is such a goof!
Just have to say, I love the title of this post. I picture in my brain Lilly & Ginko plotting devilishly to steal the pineapple the second you walk out. Too funny that Ginko has such a thing for fruits!
Naughty fruity nutty bandit!
Fruit bandit. Is a pineapple considered company? 🙂
Maybe so, Carol. Maybe it’s like the volleyball (Wilson) in the movie Castaway.
Wow. What a nut, or is he a fruit!? 🙂
I LOVE Lily’s herding pose – what kind of sheep is THIS?!
I hadn’t thought about it, Cathy, but you’re right … she was totally stalking the pineapple, trying to figure out what it was and why it was on Ginko’s bed.
Wow! Ginko sure is ambitious!
This is ENTIRELY too funny.
