Jameson Whiskey Distillery, Midleton, Cork, Ireland, 2003.
A delicious dance In my kitchen I contemplate a new mix, a special combination with heightened flavours. The perfected recipe. At last, a chance to bite into real love! The thrill of discovery I’ve tried unsuccessfully to master, for years. Many times before, I tried blending, picking ingredients so carefully… impatiently stirring the pot. But I wrongly used wooden utensils – failed to find the perfect dish, until you added that extra dash. That mysterious tang which previously eluded my search – the ultimate formula. Tempting my taste buds, leaving them bereft of that special essence; everlasting love. You are the recipe and lust the icing on my now perfected carrot cake of life. Frances Macaulay Forde © 2002
