For my son in Pune, I tell him to eat his seasonal sabzi, skip those expensive protein powders. Only supplement I allow is a little sunlight, free and clean. This Cleopatra news, I think of our college library books, how heavy they make one queen's story while our own history sits quiet in the neem's shade.

Arre, that bit about the heavy library books and the neem shade hit me right in the chest. My grandmother tells our village stories while shelling beans, not in any textbook—those are the ones that stick. And your son is lucky, my mother says the same about skipping powders and eating what the season gives, even if my code gets buggy from lack of fancy supplements.
