The way you used the senses brought out the richness of olive oil. We all thought this was effective. <BR/><BR/>One of my astute students interpreted the following line brilliantly.<BR/><BR/>"The well-stocked pantry has at minimum a high quality "eating" olive oil for fragrance, floral or spicy notes..."<BR/>He thought that you used "notes" as a way to describe the way floral and spicy shift in flavor as musical notes do on a page.<BR/><BR/>Thank you Ben for your wonderful writing.Ms. Beth Keyserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16751041990496212990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29271108.post-75042154483393692692008-05-05T07:57:00.000-07:002008-05-05T07:57:00.000-07:00Bariani is good but...
