How high can they go before business slows?


MY friend has a strange way of showing support for my recent diet plan – she keeps sending me pictures of food with the caption, “Let’s go for BLR!”

BLR is short for banana leaf rice, one of my favourite meals, but also a meal that I’ve vowed to cut down on, as its main component, rice, with its huge dose of carbohydrates, is a contributing factor to my growing middle-aged waistline.
