 This morning I drank gourmet coffee that cost $2.50 a pound, and yesterday I dug slippery globes out from furry red orbs for an afternoon snack. Sometimes when I open my refrigerator or peruse my cupboards, I am astounded by what I find – and what I don’t. Welcome to Costa Rica, where “normal” is nothing like what you’re used to!
