Keep flexible. Don't measure outcome before the work is done. Let it sit.
Don't taste the eggplant until you're roasted it.
Minimalist Epic: On preparing a roasted eggplant salad while writing a daily poem
Slice lengthwise small Italian eggplants
Drizzle w/olive oil
Roast @400 degrees until soft
Mix with olive oil & pepper (lemon, if you wish)
Arrange on plate & top w/cherry tomatoes, feta, black pit-less olives, cut basil, pine nuts optional
Drizzle with olive oil
Crown with basil sprig/bouquet
P.S. Add fresh cut apricots or figs. Or both. These in moderation but write voraciously.
Cook & write everyday. Confuse them. Don't confuse them.

ReplyDeleteWe saw the boats and emty bins
Turn toward their end in ruin
We ate our sordid meals from them
So empty were we back then
We threw our silver down, oh yes
Picked it up and left it plain
We licked the biggest of the lot
In the dark without the rain
