Fruit Salad on my Car

This time of year, nectar from the hakea flowers on my driveway drips onto my car whenever I tempt fate and park nearby. Forgetting this, on Saturday my car was glistening from a thorough clean but by Sunday, the sticky sugar syrup had covered the roof, with pretty petals and stamens stuck in. But rather than being disheartened I'll use this to my advantage. I'm parking at work under a Moreton Bay fig, so that falling fruit will add to the mixture. And once I've found a few more fruit trees and some natural form of yoghurt or cream, I'll be ready to scrape the tasty concoction from my car into a bowl, for a free and delicious dessert.
