September 19, 2008

Beijing, China
The question before she opened the shell was “How many pearls will be inside?” My answer was three.

No, we didn't buy any of them.

PS: Olivier, the woman who guessed nearest the correct number was given one of the pearls, I think she guessed 15.

I didn't know there was ever more than one inside, that might be a little tough to eat raw, also.
