Those apples were DEE-LISSHUS!!! I had more than my share of sweet, sweet pineapple also. That's the fruit I miss the most...my pineapple cut up in a baggie.Originally Posted by jeannieb
Oh, those Jamaican apples! That is my favorite fruit EVER!
You mentioned earlier you had or were going to start a blog...do you have it up?
Very nice of you to give the girl some digi credits.
The blog is almost ready to post...I'm still working on the introductory narrative. My problem is I tend to be overly wordy. But it soon come and I'll send you the tag immediately!

Sweet, Sweet Almond
Cynthia’s Restaurant.
This is where hungry me had a fantastic lunch of steamed fish, vegetables, callaloo, and festival. I enjoyed everything.
This is where hundred of hungry mosquitoes had their fantastic lunch of my legs.
I could not believe that out of the 12 days in Jamaica this was the only time and place I got bit…no attacked would be a better description. It was like they landed on me, said grace then bit at the same time! It was crazy sudden pain.
The chef came with a repellent that worked with getting them off and keeping them away. However, my legs were flaming with pain and itching like mad.
I remembered what would take away the itch.
“Lime…lime…do you have any lime?”
He came running with a half lime. I saw the juice drip on my thigh before the fruit touched my legs so he’s using a juicy one…wonderful. The itching stopped almost instantly once the lime was rubbed on my legs. I gave thanks and praise for lime that afternoon and the hands that did the rubbing.
Chef said “Dem scent fresh blood.”
Huh??? All I know is that ‘ish hurt.
I so enjoyed this thread
Ohhhhh Vi, what a wonderful story about the young upcoming chef. She sounded like a delightful soul, filled with enthusiasm for cooking...I so love to see that at a young age. It was touching that you took her and got some credit for her phone....it only takes one kind gesture like that to help out.
I am so glad that I stopped over to catch this fabulous thread. I haven't enjoyed a trip report as much as this for some time. Thanks for your nice comments about my photography...as you realize, I am so excited to see what I can capture. Your photos are wonderful and you are a talented photographer in your own right...and also a great story teller. I have enjoyed it.
Thanks for sharing...
