Sir_Nigel   10 #1 Posted March 31, 2014 A clementine with twig and leaf encourages the belief it was freshly plucked by a girl who looked like Sophia Loren who raised her peasant skirts and then gathered her crop in a sun-drenched grove, hitched up a horse-drawn cart then drove to a quaint Spanish village to market her wares brushing off suitors and lustful stares.  More flavoursome and ripe than the common leafless type - this was lovingly dispatched with a bit of twig attached. I imagine it to be picked by her for me ‘though I’m not entirely clear how it got from there to here.  I peel it quickly, shove it in, the juices running down my chin, picturing of course its charming rustic source, a harvest lush and fruity and an ample bosomed beauty.   So astute are they who market it this way.
