The Lonesome Leaf of Lettuce.

Did you ever think a grocery store could be scary? Neither did I, until this weekend. I walked into a grocery store in Baltimore on Sunday expecting bountiful amounts of food. All I came across in the produce section were lonely lumps of lettuce leaves, no other vegetables, you could count the number of cartons of eggs on two hands. To be clear.. this was not a small grocery store, this was like a Sobeys or a Loblaws. The feeling of uneasyness is incapable to describe. I felt as though the world was coming to an end and so our food was limited because the farmers had all died. It is official that this summer I will try to grow some of my own produce, I probably won't go so far as to raise chickens.
