    5/8 I did much better than I usually do on quizzes yay!

    Also I had no idea that
    watermelon is the fruit associated with summer... the first thing I thought of was pineapple. Maybe in my head 'summer' looks like a sunny Hawaiian beach haha. Which is funny because my summer is mostly me sitting in my grandma's garden eating watermelons xD

    @libbystrawberry they are technically 'summer fruits' so I don't blame you. There's a ton of fruits that fit great with summer.
    Also I guess you really like strawberries? Haha

    And speaking of, anyone wanna guess what my favourite fruit is? :D

    @Amy22 @libbystrawberry I love strawberries, kiwis (a lot), mango, bananas, grapes (a little). Not really a big fan of pineapples or coconuts. Though none of these are my 'favourite' haha...

    Actually I don't mind eating the fruit itself, I kinda hate the pineapple flavour, like pineapple juice for example. Also I guess malibu is a alcoholic drink of sorts? I'm not into alcohol at all tbh, I think it tastes disgusting haha.

    Also I'm surprised none of you have mentioned lemons...

    Yeah the flavour can be very sweet at times. Yeah malibu is kind of alcohol like a sweet one. I tend to only drink the sweet ones the other types aren't that nice personally. OMG I love lemons so much and lemonade.

    @Amy22 I've tried some beer before and omg it was disgusting! Ngl if I didn't know what it was I would have thought I just drank urine or something :lol:

    Yess I love lemons! (if it wasn't obvious by my name haha) Me asking to guess my favourite fruit was supposed to be a trick question, I'm so surprised no one said lemon... because its not my favourite haha. My favourite is actually grapefruit! I'm kind of a citrus guy haha. Anyways...
