I had another weird one the other night. In the dream I was away visiting a ‘friend’. Presumably a long term one but somebody I have never actually met in reality. He, like myself grew his own food and we had some sort of deal where he would grow my special giant tomato seeds for me. He grew them on his kitchen ceiling and by giant… these suckers were huge like giant pumpkins and collecting them must have been an annual event because my mother (who in reality isn’t that keen on tomatoes) was really looking forward to getting some. So I’m in the guy’s kitchen catching up and checking on these tomatoes only to find he has a bit of pest problem in the form of these giant weevil bugs which are about the size of a babies fist and have totally hollowed out the giant tomatoes growing on the ceiling. The plant has tried to compensate by growing smaller giant tomatoes (about the size of a grapefruit) inside the hollowed out shell (like those baby peppers you find inside bell peppers) but the weevils are eating those too.
They make this audible hum as the tomatoes sway on the ceiling like balloons in a breeze. The kitchen is also home to several hedgehogs. Living with them is another creature that is also covered in spines but walks on two legs and has penguin flippers and an owl like face. It’s wearing blue trousers and is treated like my friend’s child it is very cute in a WTF was I eating last night sort of way.
