The Baguettes of War




Sometimes my interest in food supersedes my interest in what we put on our bodies. And sometimes two of my passions show up simultaneously in unusual ways. A moving and enlightening article, The Baguettes of War, written by Anna Badkhen, appeared in Foreign Policy magazine this month. This following quote helps to explain the photo above: "Snapshots of men wearing their kitchens -- and, indeed, their food -- to confront tanks and tear-gas cannons offered a genuine glimpse into what it is like to live in the ragged margins of the world, not just to die there."
