Sharing at the Table
Last Saturday, after a long day of exploring the city, we sat down with friends for dinner at C&S Seafood & Oyster Bar in Atlanta. The lights were perfectly dimmed, service was excellent, and there was joy and excitement in the air. Everyone enjoyed their entrees and since we were celebrating a special occasion, we decided to order an abundance of desserts.
The sweets were brought to the table with fanfare and were lit with candles. Sharing the desserts at the table was so much fun. Tasting them all allowed us to double the pleasure, triple the delight, and on and on.
We enjoyed them communally. What came to mind as we sat around the table were all of the intangibles that we have: laughter and a common history built upon familiarity. We shared our mutual love and well wishes for each other. More important than the food, we touched on our hopes and dreams for beautiful tomorrows and gratitude that particular day and the days gone by.
Cheers everyone!
