(Though the photo I really wanted to use was the one from Opera Australia's production of Don Giovanni - the one involving black leather underwear. You can see that photo here. The drooling going on from all the women - and probably a good number of the men - in the audience was almost palpable.)
But this is in fact a Bad Pun brought on by people's insistence of referring to kiwifruit as kiwis. This is wrong: kiwis are either small flightless birds from New Zealand, or the small flightless New Zealanders themselves. Trust me, I'm a Sydneysider - we know these things :)
Bad Puns aside, my main point is in fact kiwifruit muffins. Thus:
This is the sort of muffin that will probably work with any kind of fruit - I just happened to have a couple of kiwifruit that were threatening to go off if I didn't do something with them soon, and I remembered I'd found this recipe. Thus, kiwifruit muffins, with non-blurry photo (the bananas in said photo are mostly there to block out my housemate's laptop):
