Fantastic Fridays: Time for PINEAPPLES!

This Friday's special is for a larger group of people to encourage everyone to invite family and friends over for a fun weekend mini-party! It's almost spring and everyone deserves to relax and have some fun! So start inviting!

Drinks: Kick off with some Party Punch (you can add a splash of alcohol for the adults) and when things start winding up bring out the Hula Dancer shots!


Snacks: As a little pre-snack we suggest the yummy Maple Glazed Meatballs.

Main Dish: Delicious Hawaiian Chicken. A sweet taste to follow those tasty drinks!

Interesting facts about PINEAPPLES:


  • A pineapple is a berry.

  • Most fruits develop in 3-4 months but it takes about 18-24 months for a pineapple to grow to its full size.

  • Originally named "anana", a Caribbean
word for "excellent fruit", the name "pineapple" came from European explorers who thought the fruit looked like a pinecone with flesh like an apple.

  • Christopher Columbus was the first person to introduce pineapples to Europe.

  • One third of the world's pineapple comes from Hawaii.

  • If you want to speed up the ripening of a pineapple so that you can eat it faster, then you can do it by standing it upside down (on the leafy end).
