Patrick: Good Enough To Eat
A good friend of mine came into the bar I work at last weekend. She’s always got something fabulous going on, so when I noticed her
shuffling around objects in a big box at her table, I had to bop over and check out what she had. Oh. My. Golly. What were these delicious looking treats? Brownies? Different varieties of fudge? Oatmeal chocolate chip cookie bars? My sweet tooth was rabid and my salivary glands were starting to disco to the beat of the music emanating from the dancefloor in the other room. “Mmmmm. Yummy. What do we have here?” I asked, with all seriousness. She laughed, “ummm, I don’t think you want to take a bite. It’s soap.” And then I remembered. Ah, yes. Her family makes handcrafted soaps. Still craving sweetness, I stuck my nose in the box and sniffed deeply. The scents of the different soaps combined together to at least quash the sweet tooth in my nose/
