cherry cherry banana
One night way back in high school one of my bestest girlfriends and I were hanging out (disclaimer: there may have been substances involved) when we discovered The Meaning of Life. Oh, it was such a deep and profound moment for two sixteen year olds. Sixteen going on twenty-seven, that is.
Want to know The Meaning of Life?
Take a deep breath — we’re getting serious here.
You ready?
Okay.
Life is like a slot machine. Sometimes you get Cherry Cherry Cherry. But most of the time you get Cherry Cherry Banana.
Wow. You’re probably blown away at The Deepness of that thought, aren’t you?
In honor of life being like a slot machine, and inspired by Janet of Slice of Pink on this late Friday evening, here is my interpretation of Cherry Cherry Banana in shopping form.
Click here for details on each of these lovely items. And, uhhh, as adorable as those yellow shoes are, I don’t actually recommend pairing them with an all-cherry ensemble. Unless of course you just feel like being crazy like that.
I wish you all a Cherry Cherry Cherry kind of weekend.

I think that sums up the meaning of life perfectly! The good news is: whether you are getting cherry cherry cherry or cherry cherry banana, you are probably going to be getting a free beer from a cocktail waitress in a couple minutes.

Oh come on…. cherry, cherry, banana? Really? Are you sure that was the imagery you wanted to use there? Is it possible that you completely missed what your bestest girlfriend was trying to say?

This was fun. I love polyvore. And I don’t think the yellow shoes would be that bad with the red dress, actually.

Whoa, what’s with the funky disappearing comments? They go blank one at a time when I scroll down trying to read them. Now I just have to comment just to see if I can make myself disappear, too. (and no, I haven’t even STARTED drinking margaritas yet..)

I’ll take Cherry Cherry Banana anyday. Most of mine are more like Cherry, Banana, Pineapple, which makes a great smoothie but not for such good luck. I’m hoping this week is a Cherry, Cherry, Cherry though.

What a great theory on the meaning of life!
Also, I SERIOUSLY want that dress now. Why does all the beautiful stuff have to be so expensive?

Well, I would wear banana with Cherry because I bleed cardinal and straw.. but that’s just me :0) Well, and I think I may just like the way it looks.
