Pull-Apart Pineapple
Attosa, I never ever thought or dreamed a pineapple had segments that could be removed. Are you zig-zagging the entire outside of the pineapple with the paring knife? Im baffled. Or are the segments (in place already inside of it) after the top is removed? Thanks...

Trying to Get Rid of Unseen Biting Bugs for 15 Years?

Removing Breath Right Adhesive Residue from Nose?
