Yun and I had Thanksgiving dinner with the Cepins; John, Patti, Joel, and Blanca. This meal ranks up there with top 5 favorite meals. I would probably add roast, steak and potatoes, carne asada, and meatloaf to that list. We had a great time with them.
Later, we watched a couple movies. One of which was entitled, Food Inc. which was very difficult to watch in light of how much I enjoy the food mentioned above. I’ve really never spent much time considering where our food comes from and I found it mostly disgusting. If ever there was a persuasive reason to stop eating processed food, this is probably it. I long for my compound where I can grow my own food.
Another movie we saw today was Surrogates which I enjoyed quite a lot. It certainly wasn’t of the caliber of The Matrix but it does have an underlining philosophical theme which triggers questions about the ethical problems inherent to technological development.
