Lesson 23-1 One man’s meat is another man’s poison
People become quite illogical when they try to decide what can be eaten and what cannot be eaten.
If you lived in the Mediterranean,
for instance,
you would consider octopus a great delicacy.
You would not be able to understand why some people find it repulsive.
On the other hand,
your stomach would turn at the idea of frying potatoes in animal fat -- the normally accepted practice in many northern countries.
The sad truth is that most of us have been brought up to eat certain foods and we stick to them all our lives.
No creature has received more praise and abuse than the common garden snail.
Cooked in wine,
snails are a great luxury in various parts of the world.
There are countless people who,
ever since their early years,
have learned to associate snails with food.
My friend, Robert,
lives in a country where snails are despised.
As his flat is in a large town,
he has no garden of his own.
For years he has been asking me to collect snails from my garden and take them to him.

练习感悟:周一 送完俩宝上学,我坐在那里,傻坐着,干了一上午三个小时的家务,把沙发套都洗了,三年来第一次洗沙发套。中午去和star吃了海鲜自助。之后在操场散步一个多小时,微风轻轻吹,这就是我的平常日子,慢慢努力,规划好,过好每一天,仅仅在当下。
