Now that the holiday season with all its excesses is behind us, it is time to ingest healthy foods again. While I am not a huge fan of vegetables (except for the basics: potatoes, carrots, green beans, and maybe spinach and cauliflower), I love all kinds of fruit, though in this case, too, I am very conservative. Keep you papaya, mango, persimmon, lychee, kiwi, or other newfangled stuff. On the other hand, I can eat tons of apples (except Granny Smith: way too sour), pears, bananas, and other “conventional” fruit. The one exotic fruit I absolutely love is the pineapple, provided someone cuts it up for me: I’m lazy, yet I like my fruit fresh. Fortunately, my wife spoils me in this regard. And now you must excuse me: dinner (pasta carbonara) is ready and the wine is poured.
