Oh how divine..

Today I stopped by a favorite place - a local wine bar. I just wanted to get a glass before going home (I went shopping for new clothes.. NEW CLOTHES! Giddy, I tell you).

It was absolutely brilliant.

With it, I had the Three Cheese Ravioli. I savored it. Each bite was rich, soft, succulent. Each morsel a joy. I closed my eyes with each bite, I masticated slowly.

The wine tasted of apples and pears. Of course, that's what it says in the little cork-covered menu. This time I tasted it. The acidity of the Pinot Gris. The tannens. So good.

Sometimes, deliberately eating something can be so enjoyable. Sit and eat with purpose. Enjoy each bite. Savor it. I did, for once. Wonderful.
