Yummy - looks totally delicious Jorge. We had roast duck, but I didn't take a photo, so I can't share. Pears poached in red wine for dessert.

#8 looks like spinach, but is that too obvious to be right?

My photo is of me with my present.

Both wrong. I will tell what is it very soon. But you can keep trying to guess.

Susan, now with an entomological net in one hand you can quickly catch many flies.

There are nets for automobiles, but the flies get squished. Maybe a bicycle net would work!? Cool
 
jorgemotalmeida
There is only one way to know. Susan, then tell us if it works.

I can't quite remember what all that green "hair" is under the wheels. If you had tried this shot in Atlantic Canada this Christmas you would see only the handlebars and above. But this week the Pollenia were flying - but still no green "hair".

Susan, you are not really in danger.
Ian Walker of the University of Bath published a very impressive study in 2006 showing that:
* cyclists with helmets get hit more by cars than cyclists without
* females with long hair (or in his case, a male with a wig) get less hid by cars.

So keep the ponytail

[I'm not joking, I will provide the reference if someone is interested]
