Anticipation

Could anything transcend the seduction that permeates the kitchen More than freshly baked cake? I love to deeply inhale, fantasize; and then partake. Anticipating the marvelous marriage of my sense of smell and taste, My mouth starts to water… a slice to be embraced. Dark chocolate, rich and moist, with just a touch of vanilla in the flour. What could be more passionately devoured? Yet, I staunchly refuse because I choose to savor This gloriously sweet mixture of flavor, Enticingly covered with vanilla butter cream. Well, maybe just one morsel taken on my finger--- A cake lover’s dream. 09/16/15
