When Carol joined us on our second round, she threw out an impromptu breakfast invite and dangled the promise of divvying up a 20-kilo, sweet-smelling jackfruit, my plan to hit the market after two rounds went straight out the window.
Of course, it wasn’t just about the jackfruit (though it did smell amazing) or the promise of good food (though that too). The real pull? More time with friends. And I never say no to that.
The table was already set so we started with fruits and the yummiest coffee served (oh wow!) in Hermes cup and saucer set.
As always, it turned into a happy little feast. The star of the table? Carol’s aglio olio—tossed together like magic with olive oil, garlic, shrimps, and served with the biggest anchovy you’ve ever seen. So simple, so good, so flavorful, so Carol! And we felt like: “so let’s-do-this-again-tomorrow”.
We laughed, we ate, we shared stories. Finally Joy tackled the fragrant jackfruit like a pro.
And just like that, the morning slipped away in the happiest way.
