As for doilies, suit yourself, paulh. You may even put some fresh flowers in vases. Some of the like that - the females in particular - so my experience tells me

With so many new expected, we may need a super-deluxe barista machine to make dozens of 
at a time, while dispensing 
and rum and espresso, and playing pirate music on the jukebox. We can't afford to buy such a device, but maybe one of the resorts on the Cote d'or has one we can freemantle.

The French Cote d'Or is pretty much landlocked. Not that it matters to us, we can anywhere with this ship, but while spring may be on its way there I still prefer something a bit warmer, so why don't we set sails for Jamaica and stock up on 
, rum 
and a few bands capable of playing calypso, reggae and other festive music types?

That's always a welcome suggestion, Pierce. Jamaica also grows some of the finest coffee in the world. I hope the machines that brew latte, cappuccino, and espresso are easy to pilfer there.

another thing I like from there is a citrus fruit under the UGLI namebrand. It is sort of a cross between a grapefruit and a naval orange, or pomelo.

Are they seasonal? Would they be in stores right now?

they are in Michigan stores right now, next to the Naval oranges. I think it is close to the end of the season. I first saw them in February and one site said they are available for about three mon6ths a year.

I have eaten 'Navel Oranges' on a boat, and also in Army camps
Does that count

I think most kinds of oranges are still in season. I usually associate them with late winter, though.

I believe we get most of our oranges from the countries around the Mediteranean where they ripe simultaneously with our 
s and pears
