Blue
The elections are coming. An election monitor's duty is to make sure that the bluish purple mark of the stamp hits the ballot on the spot desired by the voter, and not by anyone else. Light pink and light blue.
Now, days are spent in vehicles. On days of walking, lunches are popped corn with roasted soy beans. And if one is lucky, maybe even some horseradish pickle. Savory. Stuffed in jars. Lots of mustard seed, the oil soaked up by the chopped vegetable.
Internet access is not scarce, surprisingly.
But entries might be. I will be back after the elections. Maybe one or two posts before then, who knows.
