Salt and pepper are turning out to be the undisputed flavour of lockdown season. It's what you reach out to each time you're about to indulge in a sunny side up for breakfast. Or any time of the day during the lockdown. In such times, it also happens to be the trusted twosome for most seasoning adventures while whipping up something new in the kitchen.

Then, there is the other kind of salt and pepper talk that's causing quite a bit of stress for some folk. Uncles, aunties, millennials, xennials, Gen Ys, Gen Xs and everyone before and after them residing in my multi-aged housing complex have been spotted with silver grey, salt-and-pepper hair; oh, and may we add, unkempt moustaches and beards, too.
