Frozen turkeys went on sale a week ago and I have already roasted 3 with a 4th one thawing out ... the first 3 were 15 lbs and the one now thawing is 25 lbs ...
Tiring of turkey, I bought a Hormel Spiral Sliced Ham at Albertson's yesterday and am currently cooking pinto beans with fresh red bell pepper and chili red pepper spices with the ham bone after storing the slices in a zip lock bag in the refrigerator ...
How we choose to nourish our bodies is as variable, individually person to person, as how we nourish our emotions, souls, and minds. I value the differences and freedom to choose among so many available commodities commercially, mass marketed packages. What I now miss is the uncommercialized, old fashioned farmer's market and friendly home town preacher where everyone knew everyone else, not only the fields' locations and stock's health and age or river source of the fish they were eating at meal time, but more importantly, the collective spiritually uplifting of everyone within their locality and visiting distance, having mutual concern for the well being of the other whether it be a new birth, a new marriage, or untimely death (death is always untimely it seems). It was always unfortunate if someone died in the winter with the ground frozen hard.
Modern times are separating us from our personal identities as we are asked to present our cards, our membership number id(S) , and passwords to gain access or conduct business. Moving into the future and looking ahead I wonder if we are unperceptively being dehumanized and desensitized to what is most precious in our lives, in mankind's civilization, and our life sustaining environment. ???? Literally, the future is unreal.....
