Qur'an 20211014

 In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

109.  They swear their strongest oaths by Allah, that if a Sign came to them, by it they would believe.  Say, "Certainly Signs are in the power of Allah.  But what will make you realize that if Signs came, they would not believe?"

110.  We shall turn to their hearts and their eyes, even as they refused to believe in this in the first instance, We shall leave them in their trespasses to wander in distraction.

(The Cattle 6:109-110)

Food

 

Hi Natty!  How are you today?  I hope you are doing well, and enjoying yourself.  What did you have for dinner?  I finished off the rest of the curry pup fixings I prepped a few days ago.  I'm pretty sure the potatoes, onions, and beef I used were real.  I can't really tell with flour, but it tasted OK.  I always get my lunch at the corner restaurant, and the boss generally gets his produce from the neighbors, who grow the stuff in their yards.  That is as pure as it gets.  If the produce looks too good to be true, then it's chemically treated.  I guess we take this for granted no matter what country we're from, whether it be China or USA.  Again, if produce looks excellent then it's not pure.  That's just the produce, what about the other stuff?  It's a blessing to have knowledge of cooking to be able to tell the quality of food products, but still a lot of junk gets through.  Because it looks so good.  Or because we are too poor to avoid it.  Sigh.  Might as well eat the microphone.

I really like Andre Antunes work!  The video above is hilarious but seriously, Yoko has found her genre!
