isn't cellulose everywhere?
kinda like god,
but i think you can see cellulose---at least with a microscope.
our first salad of the growing season was offered up today as an afternoon gift of spring.
mmmmmmmm. these tender leaves of iceberg are so miraculous to me. not only because of their beauty of form, subtlety of color, and smooth crispy texture;
and also not only because of the spray of rain that each bite brings;
but mostly because they're an expression of a fleeting confluence of conditions which very shortly will be replaced by an altogether different and decidedly hostile set of conditions (scorching heat); at least for Lactuca sativa............
sponges have been on my mind lately, for reasons to be explained soon,
and during a routine stop at the local pharmacy/mega-sundries franchise of national proportions, i had a tough decision to make: brand or generic, sponges that is, and i'm referring to your average garden variety of kitchen utility sponge.
here's where my dilemma arose. as i involuntarily reached for the familiar green packaging of my trusted Scotch-Brite 3-pack, a contender caught my eye.
Kitchen Sponges-
Naturally Absorbent Cellulose...
cellulose?
that sounds good.
cellulose is natural, right? like cells, and cell walls, in plants and animals and probably other stuff too. and isn't cellulose being developed as a fuel source? it comes from corn and other green things...
i bet there's cellulose in lettuce too... being a bit pressed for time, i grabbed both and decided to sort it out later...❧
