Elysian Fields

Let us go, you and I, when the evening is spread out agianst the sky. Oh, do not ask "what is it?" Let us go and make our visit...

there's nothing in my frig, there is no food. Went to Ralphs to browse today, Hoping to buy enough groceries to prepare myself breakfast, lunch, and dinner (considering how much money I have in the bank, I really shouldn’t eat out very often). I walked briskly past aisle after aisle and my brisk strides was reduced to languid pace… tuna…tuna…TUNA SALAD…wait…do I know how to make that? Is it JUST tuna and mayo? It can’t be. And so the same conversation goes for every aisle that I went to, from the simple tuna salad to the complex raw meat and fish, I realized that I can’t make anything… I simply do not know how to cook. And so the story goes, 35 minutes later I left the store with a bag of organic carrots, a bag of broccoli, and a loaf of white bread… I got home staring at these items thinking: what is this? What can I make out of these? Consolation prize perhaps, I dunno, I’ll figure something out, maybe a carrot broccoli salad on white bread! Anyone?
