That is why I said something about pressure to enjoy them. I would love to read about your further adventures. Please put me on that mailing list.

One small green tomato was five dollars. I ate noodles for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You must have felt a lot of pressure to enjoy those expensive mangoes. I am glad you found a beautiful home there. Keep in touch. I want to hear about your adventures. Maybe you could set up a blog about living there?
