Seduberry; The Fruit Of Seduction

Hey SuperForest,

This struck me sideways! Hailing from Tasmania, 22-year-old Joshua Engwerd, a very keen gardener and all-round romantic guy, has developed moulds which make for heart-shaped strawberries; an idea he thought of for his girlfriend.

The first Australian commercial crop of heart-shaped strawberries, fittingly called Seduberries, will be harvested in Tasmania next month. Josh says he got the idea after recalling an article about Japan’s cube-shaped watermelons (below).

Unreal, isn’t it? The watermelons were grown in glass boxes, and the fruit simply assumed the same shape. And if you missed this episode of the SuperForest Show, check it out over a plate of regular-shaped s/berries or w/melon. Yay!

Fruit rules,
April

The SuperForest Show! (12/21/09) Let’s Draw A Picture! (Strawberry Balloon!)

Gooooooooood Morning SuperForest!

I, SFJ, am in Hawaii with my lovely fam. This morning I woke up and really wanted to draw a picture, so I found a nice sunny spot on the floor and got my art supplies all ready when, lo and behold, little doggies had infiltrated my sunbeam!

These solar-powered hounds had snuck in while my back was turned and soaked up all the photons. Crafty doggies! Sorry about the sound quality in the viddy, my Mum is in the background steaming milk, and then she asks me a list of Mom-questions: How did I sleep? Was I boogery? That sort of thing. To answer those questions, I slept very well, with the help of a sudafed and I am still quite boogery. Flying seems to make me boogery.

Here’s a question: Would anyone like to own this drawing? Well, if you like it, you can buy it!
The drawing is done on the finest upcycled manilla envelope, personally hand-rescued from the trash by me. I pre-drew the “Strawberry Balloon” drawing three other times on the same piece of paper, so really, it’s like four drawings for the price of one.
All proceeds go to helping buy server space for beloved SuperForest! That will help make this wonderful site truly sustainable.
