Gratitude
For the shopper who picked out these potatoes and this head of lettuce
For the bagger who sorted all the freezer foods in one bag, the refrigerator foods in other bags, the produce together, the pantry items in others
For the driver who found my house without getting lost….which happens…and delivered the bags to my patio table
And stretching behind them, the truck drivers and farmers and harvesters, all of those who brought this food to my table
This blueberry
This tomato
This mushroom
This potato
This leaf of lettuce
For which I feel gratitude
Wonderful, Kristin! Thank you so much.
I appreciate your comments, Elaine, nice to know you are out there!
Today will be my first grocery delivery ever, precipitated by my son-in-law’s battle with the virus and my need to be safe and well. He is the grocery shopper of the family otherwise not venturing out since March, wearing a mask and followed all other protective measures. Your words of gratitude make me grateful too! I’m also grateful that my son-in-law hasn’t been in the hospital so far.
Thank you, Shari. It is Linc’s condition that reinforced my caution. Sending good wishes to him and his family.
