blood oranges, georgia peaches, maybe a couple of bananas and some good green tea. this would be considered fine dining for me although i somehow don't see most readers getting how this can be so
a friend of mine lived on a tropical island in central america. his income stream consists of royalty checks from his late father, a famous musician and composer. when the checks come in, he lives lavishly, but sometimes the checks don't come in time to keep him from getting broke. he'd then borrow money from me to go shopping for food so he can buy cheese doodles or whatever. think about living on a tropical island with an abundance of coconuts, fish, and bananas and having nothing to eat as you have no money for crap processed food.
