I just got back from shopping. I hate grocery shopping. I sort of imagine a lot of people do. Ok, there are those who love any kind of shopping, but I do not fall into that category at all. Maybe amazon.com has got the right idea about using drones for delivery of products. But I think we've gone in the wrong direction. I think shopping for groceries should be a sensuous experience. But here in the rural Midwest, everything is hermetically sealed. I want to be able to smell everything even the stinky fish and cheese. But that isn't how things are done today. Even the fruit is bred for consistency and longevity, but smell isn't all that important, so you don't really smell it in the produce department. I also want to see the colors and yes, sometimes even touch the produce, but that isn't allowed. I think our health and happiness is threatened more by overprocessed foods than germs.
With that being said, tomorrow, I'm planning to get some cooking done. I'm not going to say what for sure because I don't know. Check this space.
