I had the honour to spend yet another meal with Helen and Steve in their private Michelin Star dining room. I love being invited there. We had home-made chunky vegetable soup as a starter, extra matured, organic Aberdeen Angus steak with potatoes and vegetables and Raspberry Fool for desert. I love raspberry fool. It always captures me with its rich simplicity. I never ate a desert for that long in my life I just wanted to savour it as long as I could. After dinner we chatted about many things that life has brought into our ways. The stories shared about Israel in the eighties and the complexity of layers where the bitter taste of war leads touched me deeply and changed yet again my perception of the character of life. Even though I would like to think I easily capture people’s situations and I am compassionate I still have to learn new ways of understanding people.
One week into Lent and I already feel the blessing of the break!
