A lover who taught her many things before he left. Pasta, garlic and olive oil in the night. Provolone and Parmesan. Crusty bread and Cabernet Sauvignon. Candlelight and classical music. Laughter. Appetites whetted by lovemaking. Garlic and sex linked forever in her mind.
.... memories are made of this!
ReplyDeleteI see we had different experiences. I like your memory better than my own.

Eat, Pray and Love springs to mind possibly without the 'oray'! Wonderful images locked in my mind after reading this.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Bee, great images unleashed by your words. Great Magpie.
ReplyDeleteLovely, for once a lover who left more than a bad taste in the mouth after he'd gone.
ReplyDeleteIf I ate garlic...trust me, there would be NONE of the other. I enjoyed your memory though!
ReplyDeleteGreat images...and although the lover left...the best remained!
