What is one thing that no one knows about you?
I'm kind of obsessed with shopping at local farms or farmers' markets. I really enjoy eating eggs that were just laid by the free-range chickens I just saw, or vegetables that were alive in the ground an hour before they're on the table. I definitely prefer the environment of a farm better than environment of a grocery store, and I look forward to taking my son to farms when he's old enough—what a great teaching opportunity.
Farmers' markets are great because in a way they're so classic—people have been doing this for ten thousand years, coming together to trade whatever they've produced. At my local market, that might be heirloom tomatoes, little artisan cheeses and yogurts, homemade candies and jellies, arts and crafts. It's always a kind of festive environment, and I just like this idea of an open space where everyone can offer their little thing that they've created. There's a much greater sense of human connection in a free-form market like that, compared to a corporate shopping center, and you can really observe how society spontaneously creates itself out of thin air every day.
So, yeah, I'm fascinated by those things, and I don't think my farm-related obsession is common knowledge.
