Last night I had a dream in which I was standing in the middle of a large store that sold only organic fruits, vegetables and cheeses. I somehow knew that it was in Tripoli.
I distinctly remember seeing rows of firm asparagus and large artichokes, and patches of grape-size blueberries (there were other berries too, but I'm not sure what they were), and everything was...hmm...glisteningly fresh.
Today I spent all day surfing chowhound and pretending that steamed zucchini tastes like grilled squash.
*sigh*
Libya's driving me further down the slope of insanity

Self 1: But at least I can conveniently get camel meat here, no?
Self 2: Right, so what are you going to do when the novelty wears off?
Self 1: Uuhhh...
Self 2 (interrupting): That's what I thought. Here, you want some almonds?
Self 1: See? You've been living off of almonds for the last six months. What are YOU going to do when the novelty wears off?
Self 2: Shut up! you wimpish boor.
...both selves promptly scuffle while Self 3 watches and laughs: ha ha ha, save some for tomorrow, you idiots, or my burpees might hurt you.

When I flew back from Germany last month, security stopped me to check my carry on luggage. Aside from several blocks of Haloumi, I was carrying a head of Broccoli the size of a football.
"Where are you flying to ?" asked the German security guy.
"Libya", says I
"Don't they have Broccoli in Libya?" he asked
"Not this big they don't"

Hey Mo
I know how you feel. Sounds as if you need some R&R state side.
