when i eat my slop its charming, self aware and if we're being honest with ourselves a little revolutionary. a small liberation from the prison of high culture and good taste. when you eat your slop it's anti-intellectual, myopic and a self-centred rejection of art as conscious human value

as we head into the late spring, early summer i am starting to get reports that being a "tomato girl" was last year's "trend" and to these COWARDS i would like to remind that tomatoes are forever. tomatoes are for life. tomatoes are for little crostinis with burrata and olive oil and flaky SALT
