That is me, too. When I saw this in the Merc, I was reminded of a time years ago when we were at a dinner party. The host didn't recycle (the horror), so my son suggested we bag our bottles/ cans etc and bring them back just so we could re-cycle.
cooker, you have taught your son well. I wish I had the naivete to say that, but in my mind I have the same reaction when someone asks me to junk a can or bottle into their regular garbage.
Cooker, asha, trupti, The last frame actually breaks my heart. It seems to suggest that no matter what we do, the problem is much bigger and out of our control.
The problem is big but we can chip away at it by talking about it as you are now and by being proactive. We may not have the $$ power that corporates have to make a difference but when we work together, our collective effort begins to make a dent.
Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving your kind comments. Please come back and visit soon.
By the way, you don't have to worry about the dust :) your place looks just great with the art you have created and displayed on your web page. The pics speak for themselves.
Manisha, I agree about the collective power, though I admitedly do not do enough to spread the awareness about how we as individuals can take a little effort to help control the larger environmental issues at stake.
Food is certainly about eating and cooking, but it is also about the memories, the stories, the traditions, the discoveries, the rituals, the seasons, and everything else surrounding it. This blog hopes to capture that, and more.
Want else is Evolving?
Even when there is time to cook, there isn't always time to photograph it or write about it in great detail. So I have a parallel blog to capture unfinished posts, random thoughts, notes, and sometimes badly taken pictures which weren't exactly meant to be show-cased. There will be little to no proof-reading, and much less stress.
If this main blog is the dining room, then think of the other one as the kitchen. It is called Evolving Notes and is open by subscription, so if you would like to take a peek, send me an email to evolvingtastes[at]gmail[dot]com, and I will add you to the list.
