One sign of western decadence — a full fridge. I pulled open my fridge door this morning to try and find a spot to put my blender container so my fruits could thaw (blueberries, blackberries, strawberries and fresh bananas – yum-o!).

There’s a lot of stuff going on in there. I’d hate to know what’s growing in the back. There’s soy milk, zucchini, squash, onions, potatoes, tomatoes (which I know shouldn’t be stored in the fridge, but they spoil too fast for me otherwise), lettuce and a bunch of other veggies.

The one thing I wanted for lunch? An open-faced sandwich topped with guacamole and cucumber. The one thing I don’t have in this mess? A freakin’ cucumber.
