Personally, the most spectacular this year was my birthday. Since it is between Christmas and New Year, I have never really celebrated it. This year I had to make up for previous non-celebrated birthdays. My first thought was to pull the covers over my head and pretend like it is nothing. Good with friends who remind you that you can, and mostly, should have a birthday party on the day itself.
A great leisure interest is cooking, making cakes, desserts, etc. Probably because I liked organic chemistry where temperature, ingredients, color, shape, etc. matter. A certain temperature is needed so that the food does not burn. Sauces that are reduced. Tomato puree or Chinese soy that adds color and salt. And so on.
Now I quickly realized that I couldn’t cook that day and I looked for alternatives. I found a restaurant that I liked, and that seemed to have about the same type of food that I prefere. Everything from lighter dishes to more advanced ones.
You always learn something new about yourself. It was a difficult feeling not to have control over the preparation of the food. However, I was very satisfied. Fine ingredients, prepared at the right time, and exciting compositions. I hope that everyone had a taste experience. However, the company is one of the greatest spices. I think this evening deserves two stars.
This was the small, local life. As usual, there is a lot of turbulence going on in the world. Therefore, it is nice to forget and relax for an evening. We must continue to be vigilant because there is still some concern in several parts of the world. Wishing you readers a good end to 2023. Especially all the friends I would have liked to join this evening. More birthdays are to come!
