A tour of flavours and experiences

Salon de Provence, 2024. 28 May.

This wine is so good, I don’t want to take it off my tongue! I want to feel it all day, like the kiss of a little girl picking grapes after dawn. Sometimes all it takes is one bite to know you’re in the right place. Let’s name the place, if you’re inspired: the terrace of the Iki restaurant, next to the Nostradamus statue. When you feel your taste buds doing a happy dance after the first drop of sauce. Not a bonfire of excessive spices; but an invitation to a sensual rumba. Peach crackers after coffee; sly thoughtfulness, like lipstick on the neck. After a few hours, a smile still sits on her lips. You remember the taste of the kiss and the intoxicating dressing. From now on, every peach biscuit is a rendezvous with flavours. As every lipstick smells like a harvest dawn.

By the way, lunch was not the only good thing about today. I didn’t regret getting up early in the morning: I walked around the market in the neighbouring village; by ten o’clock I was in the town of Salon, where I had nothing planned but a long walk. It became shopping. I walked around this beautiful city and stopped in a few boutiques before and after lunch. I found great summer trousers and shirts. I ended up buying myself one pair of long pants, one pair of shorts and a t-shirt. I will end the day with website building. I can’t do it, I don’t understand, it’ll take me a long time to finish it. Oh, and to complete the list of technical problems: my ebook reader, again, gave up and froze.
