My husband would love this - Ralph Grizzle of Avidcruiser christened him the Portuguese Jack Sparrow when we toured him here last spring. Look us up when you come ashore next time you drop anchor in Lisbon before or after your Atlantic crossing or on your way to or from the Med.
Well done Joe on making the decision to give up smoking, plus it is a very smart move to talk about it online - that way you will not slide so easily as we are all watching & rooting for you.
Yes it is an eye opener that many Chefs & people in the restaurant industry are smokers when their palates are a fundamental asset.
I have eaten organic food now for decades & my taste buds have really thanked me for it. Try giving up smoking for a couple of days & sample the difference.
Many years ago I also did a 3 day fast to detox my system & guest what, I could smell nuances in my regular meals that I did not know were there.
Don't miss out on the full panoply of tastes & smells that great food has to offer.
