The author Michael Pollan has been making the rounds lately publicizing his new book "In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto". The book is an expansion of an essay he had in the New York Times Magazine a year or two ago. I haven't read the book but the essay was great. Pollan's tagline for it was simply "Eat Food. Not too much. Mostly plants."
I took the photo above a few minutes ago. The vine-ripened tomato looks lovely doesn't it? Anyone care to guess what day it was bought?
In case anyone was wondering, my kitchen and living room aren't combined. Unlike the kitchen the living room has windows and natural light, making for better photography.
beautiful photo, beautiful tomato - But I'm not good at guessing ages...Friday?

Not last Friday. This lovely tomato was brought home on a Wednesday, but not last Wednesday...

What kind of preservatives are in that tomato?

I don't know. I wonder how long it will stay looking fresh.

I like your couch. I wonder if the cushions are smooshy or firm.
