Eva’s Byte #261 - Consumed by Food
This week, anyway.
What consumes you, lately?
As each of us strive to survive and thrive during the COVID-19 pandemic, we adopt a new lifestyle, whether we like it or not.
Not liking to leave the sanctuary of my home to forage at the local supermarket, as the number of cases in my area surpasses 8000, I did so anyway.
Smoked out of my own home, consumed by food:
Since my last trip there, the latest standard procedure implemented involves one-way travel down the aisles, clearly designated by arrows strategically placed at the end of each intersection. As if that’s not enough, the voice projected from a loud speaker reminds everyone to follow protocol.
A few shoppers blatantly ignore the safety measure, compromising social-distancing, while cross-contaminating.
Civil Disobedience—Frank Sinatra’s “My Way” (1969) comes to mind.
Even if these nonconformists hadn’t given the slightest thought to jeopardizing others, you’d think they’d be concerned for their own well-being. Apparently not.
Once more, back home unless driven out by primordial needs, I’ve battened down the hatches, resuming my online quests to better accommodate a lifestyle imposed by the pandemic.
In that regard, I signed up for a weekly, meal-delivery service:
Good-for-you-food— less sugar, less processed ingredients, more nutrients, and 500 calories or less. Freshly chef-prepared. Ready to consume in minutes after heating in the microwave.
Also consumed with writing in my capacity as an author, this week I’m rounding the bend to completing the draft of chapter 47 in my Contemporary WIP.
*My sincere appreciation if you’ve read this far. May whatever consumes you for the time being, enable a healthier lifestyle.
