The Sensual Pleasure of Eating

Sunday was one of the best dinner experiences I've ever had. Curtis decided to make risotto using some turkey stock I had made and some leftover prosiuto from our zoo picnic. It was delicious! Creamy and warm, like good comfort food. The classical station was comparing recordings of Rachmaninoff's "Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini." The music perfectly fit the food. Thomas sat on my knee (with my arm around him for support) and Curtis fed him some of the risotto. (He loved it.) The cat was curled up on the footstool next to me. Having us all together with great food and great music, just made for the perfect evening.
