The Honeymoon
NATALIE BRANNON'S RECIPE FOR "HONEYMOON ON THE ROCKS"

TAKE:

One husband, usually aboard ship somewhere.

ADD:

One miniscule apartment--with a "sea view" that is only visible from atop the kitchen counter, but which comes fully equipped with large, flying cockroaches.

Two scantily clad neighbors, who entertain male friends at the most astonishing times of night.

Three of your husband's Coast Guard buddies, who are wagering whether a fourth can sleep with a woman from each of the fifty states.

Mix in the heat of a so-called tropical paradise.

Add newlywed nerves and a large pinch of passion.

Put in the oven, and hope for a marriage that lasts.
