I've Realized Something


Whenever I eat a chicken leg, I feel like I am a cavewoman. Let me explain... there is something about eating with my hands that makes me feel primitive, uncivilized, and I like it.

Sort of the same thing when I eat broccoli without a fork because a piece of broccoli is like a miniature tree. Did your mom ever tell you to act like you were a mighty giant eating a small village to encourage you to eat your broccoli?

Not that eating a small village is a good thing but it always made eating a little more fun.

Do you ever wonder when you're sitting at a hoity toity restaurant if someone there - who by all other means appears to be a polite, civilized member of society - isn't thinking they are a monster attacking a forest of helpless trees in order to get their broccoli down?

Maybe next time you will.
