Food with a personality
Today was the first day of my new project, which sees me working from 8-12 every morning for the indefinite future. Although I had some blogging withdrawal, it was actually quite a lovely experience — perhaps, in part, because I couldn’t check the news and my email, a fact that kept my tension level down. (I find the news lately somewhat upsetting.) My client is also a lovely human being, and made me feel so welcome.
At the end of this first morning’s work, my client took me to lunch at a local French restaurant. It’s this restaurant that gives rise to something funny. Since it’s French, it offered a cheese of the day, some sort of bleu cheese. I wouldn’t have noticed it but for the adjective the menu gave that cheese: unctuous. Does that mean anything to you? It sure doesn’t to me, other than giving me a good laugh.
