the concept of food

Divorce 

Once, two spoons in bed, 

Now tined forks

Across a granite table

And the knives they have hired. 

- Billy Collins, 2008

I've taken a break from studying/cramming and read an article called "Food, Glorious Food" in this Saturday's The Age "Good Weekend" magazine. It talks about our relationship with food with regards to consumerism, the art of food writing and human character, experience and emotion. In fact, I found all articles (even the ones by the writers i dislike were okay) rather enlightening. 

I'm also really glad that the Masterchef hosts made the contestants cook with only tinned/frozen foods in one challenge because not all of us can afford such a pretentious attitude to food despite how good it looks...... 

And i should get back to learning about energy partitioning in animals......... 

Mooooooo
