Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

Still wishing you green bananas,

Fred O'Banana

P.S. Come visit my Irish pub in Bananaburg and you'll get a free smoothie at the Banana Shake!!

Mr. Madeofsocks and the Knock Knock Joke (A story narrated by Frederick D. Sock Monkey)

Today I told a Knock Knock Joke to Mr. Madeofsocks. 

Me: Knock, knock.
Mr. Madeofsocks: Frederick, get back to the kitchen. We have orders to fill!
Me: No, Mr. Madeofsocks, you're supposed to say "who's there". You're messing up the whole point of the joke!
Mr. Madeofsocks: Frederick, get to the kitchen or I'm going to call Mama Sock Monkey and have her pick you up.
Me: Fine, but you owe me a "Who's there?" next time.

I guess Mr. Madeofsocks just wanted to get home for the three-day weekend without an annoying employee spoiling his once-been good mood.

Un petit chanson (A small song. I was feeling French right there)

I like bananas and bananas like me!
And that makes me very happ-y!
With a friend and a hug, from me to you and YOU
Say you love bananas too!

Happy November! JC wants to make pumpkin muffins this week. Why pumpkin muffins, I'm not sure because she could make banana muffins!!!

The Banana Shake (again)

Well, about that new job. There's another sock monkey who wants it too. The manager, Mr. Madeofsocks, is holding a competition between me and the other sock monkey. And guess what else? I just found out that my opponent's name is also Fred!

The Banana Shake

Listen up, my friends! I'm about to apply for a job at The Banana Shake, which is this new smoothie shop that's far enough for me to take the bus. If they don't allow sock monkeys aboard, I could always take the trees....which is always a fun time. :)

Hugs and bananas,

Fred

Canada

Fish and her family will be going on a 11-day vacation to Canada this week. Hopefully, they will be riding a famous boat in Niagara Falls called "The Maid of The Mist", which is full of passengers in raincoats because water always sprays the passengers of the boat. I will be sharing a raincoat with Fish (so I won't get wet). Fish's mom is saying that maybe they won't allow sock monkeys to pass the Canadian border, so I'll have to lay low. Pictures from Fish's camera will hopefully eventually be posted here on "Fred Says...".

Hugs and bananas (but mostly bananas!),
Fred

Summer and bananas

Today is the summer solstice and the last day of school for JC, some call it: June 21st. I can smell summer in the atmosphere. Or maybe those are just bananas. Anyway, JC has a lot more time to spend at home with me and the chances are very high (or at least according to me) that she will have more time to give me bananas. OK, as you can see, I'm just trying to drop hints here so I'll make this clear: I WANT SOME BANANAS. HAVE I MADE MY POINT?

My eccentric uncle Patrick donated $100 worth of bananas to the less fortunate. Okay, maybe it was $50 dollars but I still think it was nice of him. Every President's Day, my family eats all the bananas and banana-related foods we can get our hands on, in celebration of my eccentric uncle's donations every year. Foods like banana bread (which by the way, JC's mom baked today), banana pudding, banana splits, plantains, and other stuff. Basically to us, President's Day is Banana Day but isn't every day Banana Day?
