Lucky for me, there is a market about a block away. It’s not a fancy market. There are no gourmet dog treats, no freshly roasted coffee beans, no hydroponic greens. And no prepared food. Just fruits and veggies grown in good old dirt right here on Big Island. And since this is Big Island, there is always the chance of getting rat lungworm disease from some of the produce. That adds excitement to your salad!
I didn’t buy any cocoa beans. I’ll let the pros turn it into chocolate.
I passed on these also. Just sticking to the basics. Papaya. Bananas. Avocado.
I am trying very hard to “eat healthier” and maybe lose 5 pounds while I am here. The food is so hideous at The Asylum that one would think it would be easy to lose weight. But no. I found myself eating way too many grilled cheese sandwiches, with added bacon, burgers, and chips. And, I would have lots of snacks around the Old Bat’s Cave. And not raw veggie snacks either. Oh yes, there were the beers too.
My doctor thought that losing 5 pounds would be an excellent idea. And, my clothes would appreciate that too. We’ll see how this works out.
Not fancy is good. I don’t need to be tempted by croissants.
