Qui veut des abricots ?

abricotier Versailles apricots
Imagine VDP's surprise when, on her way back to the car from Porchefontaine stadium, she saw... apricots! The thing is, the garden they are in is very overgrown which makes them hard to access even for the owners! What a shame!

Imaginez la surprise de VDP quand, en retournant à sa voiture en rentrant du stade de Porchefontaine, elle vit... un abricotier ! Il se trouve dans un jardinet et a semblé inaccessible à VDP, y compris pour les habitants de la maison. Quel dommage !

They look tempting... though I can't for the life of me recall the last time I had one.

They look good, our fruit is destroyed by the stink bug plague from China, I hope you don't get those nasty things!

Ooooohhhh, apricots might be my favorite fruit. I love apples, bananas, oranges, peaches, berries . . . heck, I love just about all fruits, but apricots are at or near the top.

Oh wouldn't I love to have an Apricot tree. Yummy. I hope you could snitch a few. LOL

Bingo is a very happy and silly dog but he does look serious and some people think he must be mean. But he is just a loving pooch.
And B-i-n-g-o is his name O!!
