Recently eating good food makes me really emotional...
I don't know why, but the simple pleasure of being able to eat what I can makes me very happy.
For instance, I went to the grocer's today to find my favorite number branded orange but there weren't any left. So I bought a different variety to taste in the car before going back to buy more. My mom asked me, "How does it taste?" And I couldn't justify it, and said, it's not very very sweet, like the one from last time, and its a tiny bit tart but its really delicious!
I had a strong moment where I felt very grateful for this tiny juicy sweet orange and thought its like a blessing on earth lol
Then I had a similar reaction to okra. It's such a simple tiny vegetable, but its got so many, many health benefits and so simple in its cooking (though way pricier than average veggies at home lol) that I was really happy of being able to eat it.
I guess its because its been awhile since I had either. I've been eating manderins all year long last year and haven't truly eaten an orange, so I thought it was divine heh.
