Our own bananas

Bought this nice bunch of mini bananas at Marche Aligre. Then we retired to the nearby Square Trusseau, where there is a nice park, and playground, and benches. And a loo, and a drinking fountain. Tiny bananas have a thin, tough skin - you might want a knife to get into them. The flesh is rich and sweet, a little more caramel than a normal banana. They are delicate and won't keep long, so we'll do what the locals do and shop for fruit every day.

Of course, that means we have a kilo of strawberries to get through today...
