Will You Let Me Try to Figure out Something about You?

[SandandWaves]

You tell me a Hint, and I will try to figure out, "what it is". Please don't tell me, because I like these challenging things. It's fun to me.

It can be what you're feeling physically, or emotionally, or... anything...

[caring__1]

I just harvested my second to last crop of the year. What did I harvest and what remains to be harvested?

[SandandWaves]

A corn field?

[caring__1]

Nope... these are trees.

[caring__1]

It has the same name as a movie theater candy.

[SandandWaves]

peach trees?
gummy peach rings

[SandandWaves]

Oh... you said the name of candy not what the candy is. gotta think

[SandandWaves]

'peanut'-m&m's

[caring__1]

Peanuts grow underground, not on trees. It starts with a J.

[SandandWaves]

You gave me three hints. man... thanks, I have been to the theatres so many times, but, I never really looked at all the candy, always got the same candies

[caring__1]

The candies are small hard and chewy (but not caramel), and the fruit is actually two in one, as it tastes like a crisp sweet apple when fresh and an even sweeter chewy date when dried.

By the way, if Liberace was still alive, he'd have no problem helping you with one of your other challenges.

[SandandWaves]

all I can think of is jelly beans but, that still doesn't grow on trees

[caring__1]

Jelly beans aren't hard, and they're way too big.

[SandandWaves]

true...
This is a very hard one for me. 'yours'.

[caring__1]

The candies were invented in 1920 and come in a rainbow of colors and 5 classic fruit and flower flavors. They weigh 5 times as much as jelly beans, yet jelly beans are 3-5 times as large, so this candy is much denser than jelly beans.

[SandandWaves]

skittles all I can think of... but, how does that relate to your harvest?

[SandandWaves]

Ok, nevermind... scratch my last message...

[SandandWaves]

Are you just messing with my mind :/?

[caring__1]

Nope, I'm not messing with your mind. The candy was invented in New York City by an immigrant from Obermarsberg, Westphalia, Germany. The fruit is one of the oldest cultivated fruit trees in the world. It originates from the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, the 'mother river' of the Chinese people. My dogs love climbing up into my trees to eat the fruit, even though the trees have two types of thorns that will get you coming and going.

[caring__1]

Unless you're from Asia, you're probably more likely to have run across the candy than the fruit, though I'll take the fruit any day over the candy.

[SandandWaves]

Jolly rancher...

[caring__1]

I've never eaten those. Are they hard and then very chewy?
I'm running out of hints. Maybe this will help: allcitycandy.com/collections/theater-box-candy

[SandandWaves]

Jujubees

[caring__1]

Yeah!!!
Now, see if you can figure out the crop I still have left. Mine is seedless, yet people question how in the world this fruit can be seedless. The fruit has taken off since 2002, when a major advertising campaign began. It has become a very healthy and popular drink and additive.

[caring__1]

The fruit is very old and was mentioned in the bible.

[SandandWaves]

Well Am glad I got it. I wanted to say this from the start. .. I didn't though because I have this thing.. where I don't want to say the answer. I been this was since a very young girl. My answer is always right. I didn't say it, because... of this reason and the fact that what does that have to do with trees, it still all falls under the 'I do not want to give my answer'. I need to work on this. Glad I got it right. ;)

[SandandWaves]

Am thinking...

[caring__1]

The Ziziphus jujuba or Jujube is also called the Chinese Date. If you don't mind the thorns, the fruit is delicious. I have 8 different varieties. My favorite, flavor-wise, is actually an unnamed variety. It has an amazing sweet tart flavor when it first starts to ripen. I prefer the larger ones for drying (Li and Shanxi Li). I just place them in a kids' wading pool (without water) in the sun. Once dried, they can be kept out on a counter for years. They taste like a very sweet, chewy date.

Don't doubt yourself. Whether the answer is correct or incorrect won't change if you say it or not. Go with your gut feeling. You could have put jujube in your browser and found out all about the fruit, if you never heard of it, as the fruit is much more popular than the candy. Holding back is common in relationships, also. People are so afraid of rejection that they avoid showing interest. Understand, you can't lose something you never had.

[SandandWaves]

I was thinking of it being a 'date'. Even though, like you said, it is like a chewy date. I use to eat dates here and there as a little girl. I know what it is... I just cannot remember what it is called and am not looking it up

[SandandWaves]

No... wait... ugh... it is a date... there is small dates and large ones

[SandandWaves]

How I always loved the challenging things... It's harder these days because of something that has happened, but with this, it just makes these more of a challenge. Not gonna stop me.

[caring__1]

People buy these to eat the seeds, but mine has no seeds, yet it is delicious and easier to eat. You notice I didn't say easy to eat.

[SandandWaves]

yeh, I got it

[caring__1]

So, what is it?

[SandandWaves]

ohhh, so it isn't a date. Ok. All I think it might be is, a pomegranate

[SandandWaves]

It can't be a pomegranate! Those have like a hard shell outing... ugh... gotta think...

[caring__1]

You did it again. Great guess. I grow seedless Eversweet pomegranates. They're easier to eat, as you don't have seeds to spit out. I like juicing them in a press.

[caring__1]

Pomegranates split open when they ripen. I just pick them when they split.

[SandandWaves]

Yay claps hands woohoo

[SandandWaves]

I ate those sometimes when I was a very young girl

[caring__1]

I just picked 75 of them and plan to juice them.

[SandandWaves]

I never had a juiced drink from pomegranates

[caring__1]

It's very good, though it can be rich if it's not watered down or mixed with other juices.

[SandandWaves]

You mixed other things with yours?

[caring__1]

Sometimes I'll blend it in a smoothie or just mix other juices. It's good with citrus or bananas and most other fruits and veggies. The object is to be creative and enjoy the results.

[SandandWaves]

Banannas sound good with it.. I was thiking about that, before I read what you said.

[caring__1]

I forgot to mention something. You never want to use any citrus juicer that twists, as that breaks down the white membrane between the seed which is very bitter, and that will add bitterness to the juice. Mine is a very simple press. Here is one like mine at EBay: www.ebay.com/.../255046946719 I found mine at the Salvation Army Thrift Store. They didn't know what it was, so they sold it to me for $5.

[SandandWaves]

Oh, wow... what a good deal

[Lliam]

My wife has a lamp in the bedroom that is made of something people eat.
What is it?

[SandandWaves]

Salt?

[Lliam]

That's it!

[SandandWaves]

Yay! I have two of those

[crmoore]

I have two favorite classical instruments.

The first one is a stringed instrument that is played with a very awkward and weird hand position.

The second one is technically a stringed instrument, but the strings are not visible from the exterior.

Which instruments are they?

[SandandWaves]

am really thinking, gonna take some time

[crmoore]

No worries, take your time. I'm in no rush. (But I might be asleep by the time you guess, but that's okay!)

[SandandWaves]

alrighty

[SandandWaves]

this one has really kept me thinking so much last night and all day today and tonight, wow

[SandandWaves]

May you give me another hint

[crmoore]

Certainly.

Both of these instruments are very popular, so they're both almost certainly something you've heard of before or are possisbly even familiar with.

The first one not only has an awkward hand position like I mentioned, but is also propped up against a part of the body in order to hold the instrument correctly.

The second instrument is very large but is especially wide, and it has several dozen keys/notes.

(I have also thought of two other easier hints if you still can't tell what the instruments are, so let me know if that is the case)

[SandandWaves]

Violin and keyboard?

[SandandWaves]

Not keyboard, I meant like a piano keyboard

[crmoore]

Haha yes! That's correct! 😄🎊🎉

[SandandWaves]

Yay... very cool... I had played the violin when I was a little girl and played the piano keyboard. ;)

[SandandWaves]

many others

[crmoore]

Cool, that sounds like a lot of fun 😄

[SandandWaves]

It sure was ;)

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

What is something that is near to me
I could change if I want to do so but I
just changed it but it's something that
keeps me in memory of this thing forever?

[SandandWaves]

That is a hard one.. still wanna try

[SandandWaves]

Your profile picture?

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

@SandandWaves Congratulations you are right :)

[SandandWaves]

Alright, cool

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

@SandandWaves Yep LOL

[SandandWaves]

@goodguybreakingbad; )

[Wiredone]

This is my favorite classic car. I've mentioned it several times in my opinions to people's questions

[SandandWaves]

Not sure if I remember. I will try to think...

[NewgodX]

I have banned all females from my life,

[NewgodX]

Sorry I mis understood it I guess, I thought you were trying our practical psychology on life subjects

[SandandWaves]

it's ok

[FunkyMonkee]

It's bigger than a bread box.

[SandandWaves]

Your record collection?

[FunkyMonkee]

Not this time.

[SandandWaves]

I just don't know... thinking of so many things... still thinking though

[FunkyMonkee]

I THOUGHT I smelled something burning!

[DaveToo]

Hint: TURP

[SandandWaves]

That is a hard one.. still wanna try

[DaveToo]

Hint: It is a medical proceedure.

[SandandWaves]

A surgery for a man's part?

[DaveToo]

Transurethral Resection Procedure. www.mayoclinic.org/.../pac-20384880

[SandandWaves]

ohhh okay... never heard of it

[DaveToo]

You shouldn't need it but if you're married you need to make sure hubby is checked yearly.

[Lonely888]

Yeah

[SandandWaves]

what's your hint
