Saturday Surfing, June 27th, 2020

have a lychee, my friend! They’re like a grape with a leathery skin and the flavor of a watermelon spiked with a peach.
Happy Saturday, my friend! If you need me, I’ll be here in my corner greedily scarfing down lychees before any individual else gets their paws on ’em.

Kidding! I’m always delighted to share. You’ll have to peel your own, though.

If Cookie Monster gets to be the monster of all cookies, I would like to be the monster of all lychees. Consequently, henceforth, from this day forward, you may refer to me by my Sesame name…”Lychee Monster,” considering that I can and will eat an obscene amount of lychees.

LOL.

On that note, lychees for EVERYONE!

On why people are wearing perfumes even though nobody’s around to smell them: “A scent’s power to evoke the aura of beloved people, places, and things that we can’t interact with while sequestered at home may also describe why fragrance sales have held consistent despite widespread job loss and financial insecurity amid a global pandemic.”
