here<\/a> – and being absolutely overwhelmed by the choices, the hand-decorated cakes, fresh produce, bread … Here he had grown up with the belief that the West was evil. But looking at that abundance in Houston, he was like: What we are doing does not work. They are doing something right. Anyway. It is one of my favorite historical anecdotes of all time – and I went to the Pathmark 5 towns north of me today and basically I felt like Boris Yeltsin in Houston. And I seriously wonder if anyone else on the planet but me would ever make such a comparison or would ever even know what the hell I meant.) Anyway. I was gobsmacked at the variety. I had a field day. I went nuts.<\/p>\nI came home. I took a long walk at dusk. I came home and cooked dinner. Well, because I’m me – I cooked a shitload of stuff that I will now put in Tupperware containers and dole out to myself for the rest of the week. I don’t enjoy cooking on a daily basis. I seriously wish I did!! But obviously I like to have food in the fridge (duh) and I really enjoy preparing stuff for myself – I don’t know how that works out, but whatever, it does … Meaning: I’m not against the Weight Watchers frozen dinners (the new chicken and picante one is my new favorite) and stuff like that, but I really like cooking stuff myself, packing it away, and knowing I’ll be eating it for the next week. I’m weird. I get it all out of the way in one fell swoop.<\/p>\n

See if you can guess what it is, just from this one bit of the credits.<\/p>\n
If you know the movie, it’ll be a no-brainer. But still. There’s something about that particular screen of names that pleases me to my core.<\/p>\n

Had a long conversation with my parents tonight. It was really nice. We talked about books, and life, and food, and everything … and I am in a place right now where every second I am grateful for.
