FRESH!


The definition of my first few weeks in Gaza!
With lots of friends who have small farms and a few products that are in season, I've had the luxury of having fresh fruits, vegetables, and something I had never done before-- eaten an lamb and beef 2 hours after it was slaughtered (sorry, a carnivore writing here). I had never thought so much about how eerie it was that almost every meat product I've ever eaten is frozen and from who knows where! Growing up in Colombia did offer a few fresh products, but even the animal products are now mostly packaged, frozen and taken to big grocery stores.
