Bagging!

It's time to bag. If you are pregnant, or faint of heart you should navigate away from this page now. All warnings have been given, so if you are still here there is now no excuse as to what to expect. This is the part where I go off on a tangent about something that most people would consider insignificant or a minor nuisance at most, but I consider a serious annoyance. But, you'd been expecting that right?


What the heck is a gourmand? You think you know? Let's review:
From Webster's
Gor"mand\, n. [F. gourmand; cf. Prov. F. gourmer to sip, to lap, gourmacher to eat improperly, F. gourme mumps, glanders, Icel. gormr mud, mire, Prov. E. gorm to smear, daub; all perh. akin to E. gore blood, filth. Cf. Gourmand.] A greedy or ravenous eater

I know some want to think that it means gourmet, but alas no. I do not ever want to be considered a GOURMAND. It sounds disgusting. There also seems to be an elitist connotation to it. Like they think that they are better than the rest of us. People it is just food. Food is not art, nor a birthright, nor a condition of status-at least it shouldn't be. If some one tells you that they are a GOURMAND then tell them what it really means and tell them to come down off their high horse. It's just food. Cheers.
