WWW Day 19: The 5 Hour Supper

As my journey back in time continues, I find more “lost days” where I’m left to wonder what went on.

Day 18 was one of those lost memories, and so I give you day 19:

“The 5 Hour Supper”

8-6-12

The only thing I had to look forward to this whole day was supper.

This is an oft-recurring theme in my life as I bow to the demands of my stomach, but tonight was especially exciting. Tonight, I’m eating authentic Indian food. First, I’m sure you all know that I love new cultures, and I LOVE food, so food from a new culture? Perfection.

Our chef’s name is Alamgir, and he hails from Bangladesh. When he came to the door shortly noon, I was perplexed. “I’m here to prepare supper,” he stated, as if this were the customer supper-preparing hour. “But we just ate lunch!” was my distressed reply. I wanted to be hungry enough to enjoy this, after all.

Our host shook his head and smiled with a secret only he had the answer to, and replied “Just wait.”

And that we did, friends.
