Shades of the past
And of things to come
Sleepy Hollow
Hallowed sleep.
Dreams Do Come True
Change can be rapid. Catch your breath; it is here.
From here . . .
To here . . .
To here . . .
A dream comes true.
It is Tuesday, full of cool winds and peopled streets. La Eslava and its off-menu tapas beckon. A glass of Ribera del Duero first. What next? Delicias waft past, too quickly to identify. A chalkboard menu flirts with possibilities. Outside, the camarero trails an eager appetite; an outstretched hand points to this, to that.
Inside, a back-lit English voice suggests costillos con miel. Conversation follows--short histories, reasons for being in Spain, business cards. A downward glance reveals one more delicia: azahar-sevilla! Face, voice, person to a much read blog on things sevillano. ¡Fortuito!
An elusive morsel, fate reveals contents and flavors, slowly, richly. ¡Buen provecho!
