Lulu’s friends kept telling her, “Just listen to Dr Oz; all that sugar isn’t good for you. Try adding a little protein, maybe eat some mosquitoes or something.” Mosquito sandwiches? Deep fried mosquitoes? Mosquito pizza? Lulu just couldn’t think of a way they sounded very good, maybe Anthony Bourdain on the Travel Channel would have some ideas. . . . . David, Sf.G.
