I am coming to the sad conclusion that one reason why my old
recipes are not as divine as they used to be is because my sense
of taste is changing.

Perhaps relatedly, about a month ago I had a really odd
experience. My daughter and I were at a restaurant, and
everything seemed to be really bland. I gather that was ME and
not the food. Some time later, I asked my daughter about a recipe
I had cooked, which seemed atypically bland. It had suddenly
occurred to me that THAT might have been ME too. I gather it was.
