Is That a Banana in Your Pocket...

I'm out in Cincinnati visiting Emily and finally meeting her parents, but more on that later (possibly).

I'm a day late, but I just wanted to share my oddest Christmas gift and stocking stuffer.
It's a plastic banana guard. That's on oddly phallic gift to get from your own Grandma, no? Her explanation: Whenever I see bananas I think of you. What?!

Beside the oddness, how practical is a banana guard anyway? For one, I can never take that out in public. Secondly, how many bananas are so perfectly shaped like that?

Great point about the shape. a worthy effort though, because as someone who's tried many times to bring a banana as my mid-day snack only to pull it out of my backpack as brown sticky sweet smelling mush, I've often wondered what I can do. Eat an apple?
