Every so often I think about that statistic that 6% of American men think they could take on a grizzly bear unarmed and win and suddenly the whole situation we're in makes a lot more sense

I saw this comment (not mine) from a writer on an agent's Query Tracker. What a journey, but I particularly noticed the nudges and they lead me to ask: Who else nudges after not getting a reply from the agent or am I alone in just accepting that it's another DNR?

The growing stacks of US grown celery at my grocer these past few weeks, weren't going to sell. Yesterday I saw it replaced with product from Mexico (red, green, and yellow peppers, too). 🇨🇦 is adjusting and moving on, new markets and less reliance on an unreliable trading partner

Monday's homemade chicken/vegetable stock becomes today's soup. My mirepoix suffered for the lack of celery, but the last two times to the grocer they only had U.S. product 😟(a large pile of unsold that remained untouched by me), but they had some gorgeous looking and tasting 🇨🇦 parsnips
