Presenting a new wine from the Fitou region

This one tasted kind of funny.  Almost as if the grapes came from the backside of the vineyard.

Une question.

I ask of you this one question.  Is a tomato a fruit or a vegetable?

Today the little monkey had to bring in fruit for her "gouter" or snack.  She has to bring in fruit every Thursday to share with the class.  I have grown bored of buying the standard bananas and apples.  So today I spiced it up and had her bring in the little bite sized tomatoes and an orange.

I pick her up from school and asked how snack time went.  She said, "mama, we can't bring in tomatoes because they are not a fruit!  The teacher said so."  Well now.  We may have an international difference here.   Maybe next time I will let her bring in a pumpkin!

So what do you think?
