Apples and Peanuts

An unlikely couple.

He, a Legume from South America. She, a Rosaceous from Turkey.

She, a fearless individual with a red-fierce outer skin deceiving the world about her soft-pale insides.

He, inseparable from his twin, within a brittle shell that cracks to reveal an equally rigid inside.

She loves pies and cider; he loves baseball games and M&M’s. Sauce was always an option for each, but rarely did they mix.

Beneath these stark differences developed a fertile ground for wild romance.

As cupid took aim and shot the slice of apple into the butter of peanuts, the marriage was consummated.
