Playing catch-up again...
"The bitter cold in a bowl of hot rice with barbecued pork"
Parents are traditional,
a meal of rice to stomach. risotto.
Sushi rice is not, of course, not risotto yes.
Is a bowl of hot rice,
Lord of white rice.
And our generation?
Dining out, think of Italian pizza acne
are sheep
clams caramel
what is good, is not think of rice,
or a bowl of ordinary rice with barbecued pork.
More disturbed by these than most
