once in elementary school, one of my friends remarked that the apricots we were eating were the same size and texture as my hamster. i think about that every time i eat apricots, although it doesn't really stop me.
we've had a container of apricots sitting on our counter for a few days that i've been eating now and then. but, i got bored of them in their current form. i also needed something to go with my peanut butter.
