And People Stayed Home

And people stayed home
and read books and listened
and rested and exercised
and made art and played
and learned new ways of being
and stopped
and listened deeper
someone meditated
someone prayed
someone danced
someone met their shadow
and people began to think differently
and people healed
and in the absence of people who lived in ignorant ways,
dangerous, meaningless and heartless,
even the earth began to heal
and when the danger ended
and people found each other
grieved for the dead people
and they made new choices
and dreamed of new visions
and created new ways of life
and healed the earth completely
just as they were healed themselves.

Kathleen O’Meara (1839–1888)

Chopping Garlic +Ginger +slicing Onions = bloody cut finger

A boo-boo while cutting potatoes …because trying to cut out the black spots with sashimi knife – how silly of me. What was I thinking?

chopped carrots, potatoes, LOTS of yellow onions

& LOTS of chopped red onions… Red onions mix in Tumeric, Cayenne,  Garam Masala seasoning – not Indian Curry – this is Japanese curry, a takeoff from Indian curry that’s more like stew with milder spices.  You can add on more spices like Indian black pepper to give more of the authentic Indian flavor.

Blend into the yellow onions base curry the red onions, either as crunchy garnish topping OR folded in.  I had not been using much garlic in our cooking, considering the in-person people contact I used to care about, but now, using literally TONS of garlic and ginger to revamp our immune system.  Serve over a heap of cauliflower rice.  Fast & Easy … MMMMMnnnnn Yum!

Note:  BTW, it’s been reported that one of the first signs, even if you are otherwise a-symptomatic,  you might be a carrier of Covid-19 is loss of smell and taste.  So especially happy to really smell the lush scents of spices and … yes, garlic and … yes, ginger.  Passed the in-home test when there’s no testing still not available to most. Crazy how unprepared and vulnerable we are – Healthcare System of this country is definitely NOT first world level.
