“Breakfast without orange juice is like a day without sunshine.” Anita Bryant
Such Zest The carnal pleasure of oily citrus rind sits before me and glistens in my eye, breathes into my nose, combs my tongue with such zest as to make me crave its juice at once, to quench at once the day's dusted throat of mine crying out for that conundrum of sugar and acid that awakens.
