Yet another reason I want this pandemic to end. I wanna travel again! I wanna feel the heat and sweat of a frenzied crowd. Celebrate in the streets with fans of the winning football team...even when I know next to nothing about the club...much less pronounce the club's name. I wanna, once again, eat flavors and food combinations that seemed weird and surreal at first...but quickly grows on you and, in the end, made perfect sense.

Your piece salted a wound and whetted an appetite. Thank you very much for that. (Somebody give me a jab! )
