Domino magazine this month has an ad of a lovely woman named 'Grace' who loves shopping so much that she turned her tiny kitchen into a closet, thus removing the ability to do any cooking. After all, Grace loves fashion more than food. I suppose, since as she says she lives in a large city, she can always get takeout. So she won't starve.
This ad reminded me that the lovely Grace, while being extremely beautiful and well-heeled will be missing one of life's pleasures. Tuning in to your and your family's need for sustenance and nutrition and the art of cooking coupled with the deliciousness of eating and sharing food are fundamentals of life. Not to wax too wacky on the subject, it just struck me as supporting the usual life imbalance that we all can experience.
