This spice looks so amazing I had to buy a jar, I do love my spicy flavors... I hope it is as good as it looks.
my issue with "the greater good" are these points:
- "good" is really flexible in it's definition
- we (humanity) tried it often enough. it almost never worked in a way which one would consider moral in retrospective. it's seductive to do things for "the greater good" because it makes one _feel_ good. taking action "for the cause" combined with "no pain no gain". i'd say it's at the time of not going down that well trodden path and thinking of other solutions, especially if it's regarding the bodily integrity of people.

@skyblond Scent of a woman, great name for a movie... horrible name for a topical gel used to cure yeast infections.
Getting #Gruoch was one of the best decisions I ever made.
She is a rescue dog from Romania. I suspect she probably had a hard life, so far. However, she has the sweetest nature, and we are getting on great.
I've only had her for just over two weeks, but, already, I can't imagine life without her.
@freemo And I suppose the ceiling has a heightened alertness?
