If you saw this in a child's lunch box.... (lighthearted)

... would you just know it was leftover Pimms fruit?!
We had a BBQ today, as is the British way when there's an ounce of sunshine. Few friends round and a jug of pimms on the go. After everyone had gone home and I cleared up, I started making lunches and DS asked for 'some of that tiny fruit you had in your drink', so I chucked the last of the pimms fruit in. I mean, it hasn't actually been soaked in Pimms, but it's obvious that's what it is right?!

Grin I’d smile and be envious that you had Pimms!!

Yes definitely looks like Pimms fruit.

managedmis · 02/06/2019 21:17

Totally obvious.. What's pimms?

I’d know you’d had a lovely weekend. But also, healthy and cunning use of leftovers.

I wouldn't have linked it no. (But will always check kids lunches in future....) 😂

No mint? 😂

Myusernameismud · 02/06/2019 21:34

I was tempted to put a sprig of mint in, but thought better of it Grin
It just seemed criminal to chuck it, DH is going to work with a mountain of leftover pasta salad and DD has earmarked the lime and coconut chicken strip thingys as her after school/pre swimming snack Grin

Wouldn’t have occurred to me op. But then I can’t stand Pimms so my brain likes to protect me from having to think about it.

Although I do fancy a nice orange now Sad

I was never a huge fan of pimms when I'd had it at other people's houses, but then I made a jug myself and realised I just don't like it very strong! So now it's my favourite
