I have developed a "bowl" mentality to food. If the meal can be layered into a bowl... it may well be perfect. Having a wonderful bowl (like this one from Camano Island Pottery) has something to do with it. And fruit from a farmer's market and thoughtfully passed along from a friend, adds its own sweetness. Last night: sauteed asparagus, potatoes, goat cheese, and a bowl. Wonderful.
