| My first love is a model--for the world. Someone I hope everyone will have the pleasure of visiting at least once in their life. Besides a ravishing appearance, Costa Rica also very educational side. Never conceited or cocky, Costa Rica gives and gives so that others may learn. |

| I met Mocha Coconut Frappachino one steamy Saturday afternoon in Athens. He wasn't really my type but he was cheap and so I took the plunge. And, oh, was I ever so sweetly surprised. He may have been buy one get one at the time, but pretty soon he'll be $17.50 like everything else at Starbucks. |

| I'd heard the talk. I'd also had a sip of what was to come. If my instincts were correct, Claire and Bain's Maple Yum Yum was going to be nearly impossible to resist. The song of the saw and the accolades of the accordian made me instantly smitten. |

| While in Costa Rica, we ate rice and beans at every meal every day, but I craved those rice and beans first thing in the morning because of a single substance. Natilla. Made by the Monteverde Cheese Company. A cream similar to sour cream, but sweeter than his American cousin. The natilla transformed an otherwise disappointing dish of gallo pinto into something spectacular and won my heart. |
