From the journal 📖
A housesitter from long ago left some Olivani spread in our fridge. Margarine, essentially. But it’s marketed as a “spread”, extracted from some golden offshore olive grove.
I have no personal grievance against Olivani, but it’s just not something we eat at our place. It’s something that, if we remove the lid, looks a little like pale butter.
My children don’t know what margarine is. We tried to explain the concept, but they found it confusing.
This Olivani sat on the third central shelf up, illuminated by the cold fridge light every time we opened the door, for around a year.
We wondered who might appreciate it.
“The chickens?” I suggested.
“The chickens?” the others wondered.
