Learnings

Can we talk about "learnings"? I have a visceral reaction to this icky, non-standard word, like the feeling I get when I inadvertently touch a slug when I'm gardening...what's that thing??? Learnings!! No!! Also the word "optics".

Apropos of slimy things, I learninged the other day that if you wait long enough, Hachiya persimmons do turn into real food. My review of a Hachiya persimmon is that they may not be worth the wait. They are, however, super cool to feel in your hand when they're very ripe, somewhat like handling an egg yolk. Looking at this photo I realized that the persimmon and my hand are equally wrinkly.




The persimmon and I are also soft to the touch.
