Making Moroccan
lamb salad for a picnic before A Midsummer Night’s Dream (beyond the mid-, and waking from the
dream). Lamb in cumin, coriander;
fresh-picked mint; crumbled feta (tasting of Crete); dry cured black olives; a
yoghurt dressing with a smidgen of harissa.
And then
recollections of other travels:
toasted almonds with herbes de Provence; a little piece of fontina d’Aosta;
a half bottle of Chianti Riserva; raspberries which make me long for good
Devonshire cream.
Wearing my Thoreau
Sauntering Society t-shirt, which reminds me both of Walden Pond and Aunt Nola
(who loves a good saunter).
Little mysteries in
the patio: leaves swept in; leaves
swept off again. The missing
rock. The first golden-crowned
sparrow of the fall, coming from where?
