Picnic under the moonlight

The Experience.



AUTUMN

It has a luscious buttery pastry base that melts in the mouth and a fluffy, vanilla-drenched sponge layer that oozes the flavor. But the real surprise is the unctuous, wickedly indulgent chocolate sauce layer sandwiched cheekily between the cake and the pie shell... The rice sauce simply oozes decadence and its scrummy, bitter-sweet taste combination is utterly, utterly sinful. Trust me my friends, this is a sensual experience not to be missed



VIOLET

Laughing silently to myself, I reached out for another slice of the soft, juicy fruit. The chilled slice of kiwi lay in its bowl, a green disc with a white centre, and tiny black seeds around its centre like dancing ants rejoicing in a circle. Bringing it to my mouth, I inhaled its scent, like a fruity perfume, and I bit into it, tasting first its sweetness and finally its bitter aftertaste. The bitterness like a longing, my mouth wishing for yet another slice.

I picked up an apple wedge this time. Unlike the kiwi, this was crunchy, hard. It smelt sweeter, more tempting. As I took a bite, the saccharine taste of its juice played coyly with my taste buds. In that single moment, I understood why Snow White was so tempted by a glorious red apple.



APPLES

I dipped my chopsticks into the creamy soup, locating the long pale noodles laying in the pool of whiteness. The noodles seemed to dance, rejoicing in its milky sweetness. The smooth long noodles slide in my mouth like a cool afternoon..... I sucked them up, savouring each and every bite, till the very last drop. Ah yes, the soup... The soup is nevertheless the best in the world, warming my cold death heart as I savoured the light, silky slices of fish.The cloudiness of the soup hid the chunks of savoury meat, as though hiding them from my prying eyes, though they just compelled me to search even harder for that thick piece of heaven. Ah.....the thick watering mouthful pieces of meat.....
