A 6-min film about the changing milk economy in Haryana by Amit Kumar in On Eating. Amit is still a student, and this is possibly his first film. I do not know how many times I've watched it -- it's that kind of film, moving, in a language of the heart. oneating.in/amit-kumar-the…

Adding a bit of good news to the twitter-sphere. A few weeks ago we welcomed a baby boy into our family and I’m now on Adoption Leave. It is now time to announce to my wider network. I’m going quiet on Twitter for a while - whilst I make bottles and drink (cold) tea 🥰
