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.
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...
