Today I bought a coffee that was flavored with the essences of springs from memory.
Honey and lavender stired into thick milk and expresso. It was an endulgence to be sure, yet a feeling of cleanliness soothed my heart and mind. It was a drink of nature, with ingredients that seemed over-joyed to be in company of one another.
I thought of my father cleaning the house I lived in as a boy. Ripped towels between his hands and knees he would wipe the tiled floor clean. He looked like a lion, and I as a cub would ride on his back in joy, breathing in the sweet aroma on lavender or lemon.
And I thought of my mother cooking over the gas stove that I once burned myself on as a boy. Dried lavender hung above and I watched with wide eyes as delicious magic was made in front of me.
I left the coffee shop happy, having discovered a true soul food.
Today I would like to extend an invitation to eat something delicious, be thankful for the ingredients, and cherish the sweet memory that it evokes. Feel free to share bites of course.
Absolutely! I would be so thankful to have created a place where discussions and other thoughts can be shared.
