We Have Already Eaten, Yet Yesterday We Skipped Lunch
Shared living arrangements often produce unpredictable culinary routines and lively conversations about daily nourishment. In our three-bedroom flat on Elm Street, my flatmates and I usually coordinate our evening meals to save cooking time and grocery expenses. Tonight, when our friend Lucas arrived home with takeout boxes of hot noodles, we told him that we have already eaten a hearty vegetable stew. Yet our orderly evening contrasts sharply with the hectic disorder of yesterday.
Yesterday was an extraordinarily chaotic day for everyone in the flat. Mark had two consecutive university exams, while I attended four back-to-back client conferences downtown. Because our schedules were so demanding, we skipped lunch entirely yesterday afternoon. At four o'clock, Mark grabbed a plain biscuit from the pantry, and I bought an espresso from the street vendor near the metro station.
