After our arrival in the hippie haven, Diana revealed her true colors as the god empress of Dune.

During a sunny afternoon of merriment. Ninny decided the time had come to make an homage to Ms. Drella Jones, with an amendment for other Ninnies in the world.


On our return trip, Diana and Ninny stopped in Castroville to visit the Giant Artichoke!


Suprisingly the Giant Artichoke is not only home to the ginormous leafy bud that goes so well with garlic butter, but also to a variety of oddly large fruit. Each of these fruit contains smaller, or shall I say, normal, sized fruit. Sometimes the baby fruit within are of a different variety of fruit, proving once again, that nature is not nearly as ridiculously prejudiced as humanity.



Ninny's final, and perhaps most delightful, discovery in the Giant Artichoke was this new truth. At the heart of every artichoke there lives a lobster wielding claw toy machine.


So the next time you go to eat your artichokes (which I highly recommend you do) take care when eating the heart. For therein lies a toy machine, that just might wield a stuffed lobster.
