Gave Instead Of Lent 9

February 28: Gave a tired airline pilot some much needed energy food he requested--two bananas. Bananas are a great energy source (see http://www.tummyfluff.co.uk/news/bananas.htm) and since boyhood I was encouraged to eat at least one in the morning. Jamaicans often eat green ones cooked for breakfast.
