Since I can't be Tomato ...

Since I can't be Tomato -

should I be Orange, because I'm in Florida (and should I be whole or sliced?)

or should I be a Carambola, better known as a StarFruit, which grows in our yards here in Florida (and again - should I be whole or sliced?)

or should I stick with my sunset?

What about an gigantic orange setting over the ocean? :)

I'll be a starfruit!  I love those! and anyway, who says you can't be all rolled up into one nice Sharon? :)

Jason - that's just our typical sunset.

Sally - You're wonderful! Maybe a flash presentation morphing into a final Sharon....

I think you're onto something Sharon - you could use all of them, including the whole and sliced versions!

Hi Sharon,

Like Sally, I love those too. First time I saw them myself was in HI.

I say stick to your guns and become a Tomato. Stay with it and I would bet that you can be whatever you dream,:-)

Hi Sharon - Cool looking starfish! Looks nice and juicy. I could picture myself eating one of those!

Oh, gosh, Sharon!  You're starting to sound like Jason Sardi!  I love oranges, myself!

Sharon~ 

I think you should be a golden tomato...I saw one at the organic growers' stand last year...you could plant 'em in your neighborhood garden and be proud =)

Sharon:  This is the fun part of design.  The colors of tomatoes (both gold and red) blended with star fruit and oranges all blend into  beautiful Florida sunset colors.

 morning Sharon, I've been to Florida several times but have never seen the starfruit, that is so cool. Are you asking the question in regards to using it in your blog header? Just curious. Have a great weekend...

I would put the whole orange and a slice beside it. If you go the orange route.  I like beaches in Florida, just my mid western opinion. When I am looking on the web, and thinking, "time to go to Florida", I want to see the sand and ocean.

Debbie - yes, I could, on different types of pages.

Real Estate Tomato - star fruit is my favorite, too, even though orange is more reflective of Florida - but also more common. I like eating the carambola, too.  Here we go - the slice could be called Star Fruit for typical homes, and Carambola for luxury homes ...

Katerina - I understand. Why change a good thing.

Lynda - they look so much different sliced than when you see the outside of them - especially when they're hanging on a tree.

William - I am becoming a tomato - "a" being the key. Jim is "the".

Bill - juicy, yes, and with just enough tang to be interesting.

Patricia - I'll have to check out the similarities with Jason.

janeAnne - hmmm, a golden tomato. is that like an orange one?

Roberta - I could have a game of fruit catch in the sunset.

marti - I'm not really sure why I'm asking - that might be a good idea.

Missy - maybe I should have our white sand be the background for the orange - or the bottom half sand and the top half water, with the orange there like a beachball .... 

 

Thank you all!

Hey Sharon -

I'd think you could be each of these depending upon your mood and the situation.  For example, let's say you're feeling especially creative today.  In that case, you may want to be a starfruit.  But let's say that you need to deal with a client who is really being difficult.  In that case, you may want to go with one of those really big oranges so that you can have as much girth as possible and be as intimidating as you can.  See what I'm saying?

By the way, I probably should have had stock in some orange groves because, when I was pregnant this last time (with twins), I ate about 4 oranges a day.  Yum Yum!
