Flavor

by Belinda Munoz on July 29, 2011

A sprinkle of salt smooths digestion
A bite of bitter aids detoxification

Bit of a buzz calms inhibition
A smidge of suspicion hones intuition
A touch of Tapatio heightens perception

What’s to savor with excess sweet?
What is victory without knowing defeat?
Give me the spice rack and
sugar to feast on a life
……………………………. complete.

++++++++++++++++++++++++

Do you ever crave salsa?
Would you want to eat nothing but pie?
Isn’t life more full-bodied with all the ups, downs, sides and roundabouts that come with it?
Do we not learn to be thankful for the good by witnessing/experiencing/understanding the existence/reality/dangers of the not-so-good?

For this community and this community.

true that – can’t appreciate the sugar if that’s all you’ve got!

I like a little spice as well…and variety …but sweets are my weakness.

I actually do crave salsa — but only the really good, homemade kind. I eat it at every meal!

5 Belinda July 29, 2011 at 3:23 pm: I know what you mean. Not-so-good salsa is disappointing.

love that photo… truly, you have to have the whole spice rack to enjoy the taste of all life offers.

My husband must be very perceptive. He could live off tapatio.

Good things come in many flavors.
