Although there seem to be more versions of the myth than the actual number of seeds Persephone is supposed to have eaten
-- six: condemning us all to six months of cold (i.e. autumn and winter), whilst she languishes in the Underworld... --
I still find the pomegranate (supplied, again, as a PaD prop, by my apprentice 'food stylist' SO...!)
a fascinating (although completely inedible) fruit...!

Thanks must go to the wonderful Linda Buckell for help in improving my macros... -- I'm getting there, Linda!
