The great Saturday lunch tradition...

Here we are, about an hour ago, preparing for a simple but delicious Saturday afternoon outdoor lunch at Johannes's house where we are currently staying. The day is magnificent. The air is clean. There goes Sarah up to the kitchen to grab a cold bottle of crisp Alsatian wine to go with the steamed broccoli and sauteed bok choy, and turkey-chutney-onion-cilantro-dill-burgers cooked on a grill. Now stuffed and talked out, we are moving into siesta mode... Is this soft bourgeois bliss? I don't think so. Taking the time to enjoy one's friends and free time properly is probably the best thing one can do.
