Lyrics

Life is just a bowl of cherries

Don't take it serious

Life's too mysterious

You work, you save, you worry so

But you can't take your dough

When you go, go, go

Keep repeating, it's the berries

The strongest oak must fall

The best things in life to you were just loaned

So how can you lose what you never owned

Life is just a bowl of cherries

So live and laugh at it all

Keep repeating, it's the berries

You know the strongest oak has got to fall

The sweet things in life to you were just loaned

So how can you lose what you never owned

Life is just a bowl of cherries

So live it, love it, wriggle your ears

And think nothing of it, you can't do without it

There's no two ways about it

You live and you laugh at it all

 

"Lychee is a monotypic taxon and the sole member in the genus Litchi in the soapberry family, Sapindaceae. It is a tropical tree native to the Guangdong, Fujian, and Yunnan provinces of Southeast and Southwest China, where cultivation is documented from the 11th century."

 

So, if you haven't tried this fruit yet, do so, you won't be disappointed it. :-))

Each year on December-January, markets have fresh lychees from Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean. one of our French overseas Department and Region. These are probably the last arrival in Parisian area.

A late Christmas party was held at Eric's House with friends. I took this shot while waiting for the others to come. Just doing some macro shots.

I didn't see the iridescence of this shield bug until I got it on the pc. Took some time finding out its identity too!

I love this fruit! It is expensive and hard to come by around here, so when I find some, I buy as much as I can afford and savor ever little bite.

 

p.s. thanks again for all the wonderful birthday wishes! :-)
