On Taste
On a superficial view, we may seem to differ very widely from each other in our reasonings, and no less in our pleasures: but notwithstanding this difference, which I think to be rather apparent than real, it is probable that the standard both of reason and Taste is the same in all human creatures. For…

Celebrate, do not Subside (an event on Clubhouse)
It is boiling within me; it is what sharpens my tongue, ears, memory, vision; it is what propels me to create — daily. Which is the mindset that carries us into deciding where to buy edibles, which to buy, how to prepare them, and how to eat them? Today I will be discussing these views…
