Look, y'all, if you're Southern, you need a pineapple somewhere in your front porch area. The pineapple is the welcome fruit! I got the long version of this doormat for my normal-sized door,  and I absolutely love it. I have a shoe-free home, so the mat is a good place for guests to remove their shoes before entering. It also lets people know they are REALLY welcome, moreso than a small mat.
