More Than a Grocery List
Fruit, because it’s so lovely you can paint it
Rubber gloves, because life, at times, requires a barrier from you and it
Orange Juice, because oranges grow in a sunny place and Winter is heavy upon us
Tofu because if you don’t drink wine anymore, what’s the point of cheese?
Pears, because they behold Winter and remind us to celebrate womanly shapes
A fire log because if you’re squirrely indoors, it helps to recreate early man and the discovery of your own quiet ingenuity
White Roses, because it’s been a while since someone bought you any, and your spouse sees a BLT the same way
Roasted Chicken, so you can dice it into a pie crust, toss it into a white sauce and pretend you cooked today rather than wrote poetry
