3291. Bon appétit © Bruce Goodman 8 August 2025

Monica was into food in a big way. She would just about eat anything. Don’t get me wrong; she wasn’t fat. That is because she was heavily into dried fruit such as raisins, and currents, and dried apricots, and bananas. It’s not that she didn’t eat other stuff, such as meat. She wasn’t at all vegetarian. Her favourite all-time food was dates. Goodness knows how many dates she had eaten in her lifetime. It was a great relief to the community the day she was arrested and locked in prison.
