taste

 Food and having a meal with people has always been imparting its away of coming together and to sit and talk. Woman in the kitchen has been a scared space where they could talk without men and for a while men were scared of what the woman would do to there food. But it was woman’s work and it was an accepted fear. Which is how i feel eating in chase dining hall. Taste of my food has always been important too me, trying to figure what flavor i want and the texture and if its off I don't want to eat it. My favorite tastes recently have been butter chicken and pad thai.

Animals and The Sixth Sense

Bandit   In Spell of the Sensuous , Abram writes: “In indigenous, oral cultures, nature itself is articulate; it speaks. The human voice in an oral culture is always to some extent participant with the voices of wolves, wind, and waves— participant, that is, with the encompassing discourse of an animate earth. There is no element of the landscape that is definitively void of expressive resonance and power.” (75) Being around animals for a long period of time really taught me the truth of this idea. Animals develop their own language (and I don’t use that term lightly). They are capable of lying or misleading you, which suggests that they can tell when someone knows them well. They can recognize people as members of their flock just as readily as other sheep or goats. The line between humans and other animals is much more permeable than we might imagine.  Lady At twelve, I began volunteering at a farm. It was situated on two hundred acres of forests and pastures. I worked in t...

Justice

We know the five major senses- touch, taste, sight, smell, and hearing- and we know that there are many senses beyond those ones we tend to limit ourselves to- like your sense of pain or temperature. But how many other senses are there?  Which one is our sixth sense? In The Deepest Sense , I was most fascinated by the chapter on animals. Because they had a good example for what I believe is the sixth sense that ties society together. That is, one's sense of justice. Justice is something that you perceive, and it is something that is perceived by the rest of nature, or at least our closer relatives in the animal kingdom. In that experiment, one of the monkeys was upset by the injustice of the other monkey getting better treatment. This is the cornerstone of every great society- the distributing proper treatment of people and the earth. When there is great inequality, people rise up, because they sense that justice has failed them. Sure, sensing ghosts is probably the most wel...

Memorable Moments: time and place

Taste presentation  Memorable Moments: time and place Dear REL-365-B01-2025, I had the privilege of taking SMells and Bells in the second semester of my senior year. JBK and I planned for me to take this course one year prior while planning out my religion minor. It was a really long year but I am so glad I got to take this course when I did. Class meetings for this course were some of the more challenging and more calming for me throughout the semester. Some days I anxiously sat out of conversations while scrolling through apartment websites and wondering if I needed to look for another job. Other days we made s’mores, celebrated the trees’ New Year, and went on a walk in the Wheaton Woods.  New Years for the trees Pilgrimage to the Bra Tree As always I deeply appreciated hearing from my peers especially when we disagree. I am honored to be seen as a safe person to disagree with. I am thankful for anyone who shared especially in particularly small and vulnerable classes like ...
