sweet and savory dishes

there are days we crave for sweets

cakes and pastries , chocolates and

sweet treats

some we make on our own

some are made by expert's hands

some days, we yearn for savory dishes

with local ingredients from our backyards

and spices from distant lands

we explore our neighborhoods

and travel near and far

some flavors remind us of our childhood

some remind us of special places we travelled

people we met and shared a meal with

some remind us of adventures

some dishes I can't forget

made with hands of amazing artists

What dishes have you tasted

so you unique,

it made you think?

there are dishes that are staples

we make them again and again

some dishes are from recipes we inherit

but we modify to fit our varied palate

Some dishes are made fast

meant for those who are in a rush

Some takes days or hours to make

for those special moments we

like to cherish

We all have one thing in common

we eat not just to be nourished

but sometimes to satiate a craving
