Soap.

The new bar.

Fragrant and imposing.

Sure to help keep you away from the germs you wish to reject.

A gift. Wrapped and packaged to look like a picnic basket.

Something like this seems so dated, old-fashioned and so much a thing of the past.

Yet countless small businesses call soap their home, their product.

It’s everywhere!

Slick and modern, like a Le Corbusier-infused idea of a homely cottage.

In other words, sleek meets comfy.

That was how this restaurant felt.

Ideal for meeting friends after 39 months without seeing, sensing or talking.

But we’re such good communictors, and we started at opening and left after closing.

This is not about architecture, physical design, or food.

It’s all about conversation.

The volley and vigor of intelligence strainining at the edges like a winning athlete’s workout.

Chosen to fight, flirt and fit into all clothes.

That’s the ideal candidadte for the job we can’t even describe well ourselves.

The need for editorial discretion – whatever that can be – is obvious, we think.

Working from just before sunrise until just after sunset, with three hours for lunch.

Alcohol, sedatives and senta tea are not appreciated.

So how can it get more difficult?

We wondered that too.

Wonderful side-effects and the slippery phases of the moon.

Time for a change of heart.

The delayed flight led to a shared luncheon with all passengers and firm friendships.

Laughter was, well full of endless hilariousness…enjoyed.

What a way to discover a new continent!

Undiscovered subjects

The wonder of the new.

A field of study we never heard before.

How great the prospects, how intriguing the methods.

We could never stop learning.

No such thing as a boring subject.
