They were passing out sample slices too , but I just went straight for the lovely purplish fruits and bought eight of them using what 's left of my allowance . I was very much aware , of course , that these plums will never be able to measure up to plums eaten straight from being picked . But I understand that I would probably have to move to another country if I want to be able to do that , so I refuse to complain .
So instead , I locked myself up in my room , put on Lisa Loeb , and as she sang the words Bring me wild plums , wild plums and agrimony I close my eyes and took a huge bite of the smooth plum in my hand .
Emotion: Joy
