Mushroom Lessons
Reading Time: < 1 minute
"Life is full of lessons: Some of greater importance than others. Is there a sweeter taste than those we master?" - Allen Ansell On the modern cutting board I would slice the stalks off the mushrooms, and then slice those stalks into shredded strands. My sharp knife following the pattern embedded inside my ageing brain of how she would do it... time and time again. Of course I was young and maybe unobservant of some other technique Grandma used to use. No matter, because over the years I have tried, my fried mushrooms never taste the same as hers... and I guess, never will. My God! Can't you weep that Life is so blighted to be filled with memories of things you never ever asked to cease to be? Yet if they were again, as once they surely were, we would want to change how we reacted to them... the cruelty of learning. © Allen Ansell 2023
