Not quite, I have too, but I'm afraid I haven't been leaving calling cards. I tend to read your journals in the morning, while smiley - cupid is having breakfast, and he doesn't like it if I type too much. He wants to do it, you see. smiley - smiley

Is a paw paw not another word for papaya?

smiley - rofl I can see that, Vip.

You know, I never knew. Apparently, there's an eastern US paw paw, and then there are papayas, also called paw paws.

We used to sing a song as kids:

Where, or where, is sweet little Mary?
Where, or where, is sweet little Mary?
Where, or where, is sweet little Mary?
Way down yonder in the paw paw patch.

Pickin' up paw paws, puttin' 'em in a basket,
ickin' up paw paws, puttin' 'em in a basket,
ickin' up paw paws, puttin' 'em in a basket,
Way down yonder in the paw paw patch. smiley - whistle

Here's the Hawaiian version:
