After attending the final evening of the Metropolitan Opera's performance of  Moby-Dick; or, The Whale, in this  episode I share a passionate introduction and my fandom and I read one of my favorite segment from Chapter 15, titled "Chowder."  This hilariously funny and vivid passage describes Ishmael and Queequeg's encounter with Mrs. Hussey at the Try Pots Inn on Nantucket after their frosty voyage from New Bedford where they enjoy both a delectable clam and cod chowder before negotiating sleeping arrangements minus Queequeg's harpoon.I was so inspired to share this reading and then direct you to check out my YouTube channel for my specialD, "Ocean State of Mind Clam Chowder" recipe that I hope you'll make at home!  Zero or minimal food packaging waste, nutritious, organic and economical.https://youtu.be/DW7Dezumy5Y?si=gkg9zUMut2rwPaLj MINDFUL MEALS & SUSTAINABLE LIVING - The Art of Living an Elevated Lifestyle

HI Dear Friends, It's like I'm on a Nantucket Sleigh Ride since seeing the last evening performance of the Met Opera's performance of Moby Dick.  Visually it is astounding. The thrill of going to Lincoln Center and hearing some recognizable scenarios I was reminded of the fond memories I have of reading from Moby Dick aloud during the pandemic.  I've recorded again a few paragraphs of the Chowder chapter I just love and the thought to share my youtube link for one of my Signature dishes, Ocean State of Mind Clam Chowder. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DW7Dezumy5Y&t=12s COOK MORE, SPEND LESS, YOU'LL FEEL BETTER
