Today, I'm going to make steakes and we'll have a voting party, with cheese and whine and homegrown tomatoes.

By the way, I've figured out another reason why cheese in Europe tastes better than in the US. It's the vegetables! This summer a tomato plant of unknown origin sprung up in our backyard and we decided to keep it. Ultimately, it produced a dozen of Campari tomatoes and they tasted very close to those I usually buy in regular supermarkets on my foreign trips. A combination of homegrown tomatoes even with run of the mill imported cheese tastes much better than the same cheese with regular American tomatoes.

I totally hate it when authors use the "operating system" metaphor describing a biological or psychological phenomenon related to human mind.
