Yesterday was International Women's Day, but most women were so busy working they hardly had time to notice how this was being honored (assuming that applies to others, not just this blog author).
So forgive the 12-hour lapse, but please enjoy this fine, reflective meditation on food and the women and girls who prepare it, courtesy of Rambling Spoon.
"So this is what I'm thinking about on International Women's Day 2010: all the women, all the world over, who cook our food for work, not pleasure. The women who tend the fires and clean the stoves and turn out nourishing things to eat, day after day, because cooking is what they do - and they have never really envisioned another life. Thank you for your work. You have fed me fully, and fed me well."
