simple pleasures

I'm so busy today but last night I really felt dinner was worth mentioning--even though it was so simple:

Green Asparagus, brushed with toasted sesame oil and unfiltered Italian olive oil, barely salted, roasted, and served with a dressing of light soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, toasted sesame oil and a hint of sugar

Vine-ripened tomatoes (we're seasonally just on the cusp of having edible tomatoes) and fresh buffalo mozzarella marinated in unfiltered Italian olive oil, 10-year aged balsamico, garlic, basil, oregano, sea salt and fresh ground pepper

Fresh spelt bread, toasted, to soak up the juices of the two dishes


Divinity in simplicity.
