A Luminous Halo

"Life is not a series of gig lamps symmetrically arranged; life is a luminous halo, a semi-transparent envelope surrounding us from the beginning of consciousness to the end." --Virginia Woolf

What I Had for Lunch Today: Burger and Chips


Menu for today: veggie burger on a grilled sesame seed bun with lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise. Also some baby red potatoes, nuked for a couple of minutes, then sliced and fried in a little butter and olive oil, seasoned with pani puri masala. Lorna was visiting, and she contributed a clementine for dessert. Afterward, we had tea and biscotti.
