6 of 30: Rethinking Food

Just down the road from the office, I find myself gravitating to the local wholesaler’s on my way to the station at the end of the day. Wholesaling was never a large part of our life in the UK, but the smells and sights of these stores capture my imagination. I have been so happy to see my excitement about and interest in preparing fresh food at the end of the day increase over the past few weeks, and I think a lot of that has to do with the availability of local produce and exciting new foodstuffs. The other cool thing about this particular wholesaler is that they stock European and Asian fancies, and while this type of food doesn’t suit on a daily basis, rather defeating the object of trying to buy locally, I can’t wait to stock up on Pfeffernusse, Ameretti biscuits and Polish fudge for Christmas.
