Cherie's pomegranates


Cherie's pomegranates, originally uploaded by cabanagirl.

My friend, Cherie, has a mature pomegranate tree in her yard. She brought these to me at work the other day. It was a fabulous gift. The arils (seeds) are the most purple I have ever seen. Most of the ones in the markets are sort of a light red. I had a little time to paint today. I took my pomegranates to Salt Creek Beach and sketched them while relaxing.

They are really pretty. I spotted some at the grocery store in Ellsworth but didn't pick up any as they didn't look that pretty.

What are you planning to do with these little beauties?
