Freshly brewed coffee from our cafe
Nah. We didn't turn our place into some cafe but, just to
give you that feel. Experimentation has been a part and parcel of Soulflower
all the time. Just yesterday, there was this specially ordered coffee chocolate
soap freshly baked. Talk about the aroma which travelled throughout the place
and I got it even before stepping in the kitchen. Strong, delicious,
invigorating !!!!
What amazes me is the ability of creation which is
inexplicable and goes beyond our mundane imagination. Yes - mark the word " mundane ". Most of the time we restrict ourselves, and
are stuck within our own sphere and our own circle of imaginations. Those
imaginations which are mundane. We need to let them loose and allow the
creative juices to flow, take it's own course, decide, make mistakes and
settle. Pardon me for going little off the track but that's what
mindless thoughts do to you. But, let mindless thoughts cloud your mind and
eventually you would find your way.
A small smile appeared on my face while I was observing the
whole process of icing the cake. Now, who would have thought that a mere soap
can be designed just like a cake ?? Well, I never did ! I was quite amused to
see the process when the chocolaty looking glycerin slowly poured on the top
the cake and making it's way down, dripping and the tiny soap bars being placed
in the middle looked just like chocolate blocks. Coffee beans were gently
thumbed surrounding the blocks and the white grated soaps looked exactly like
snowflakes on the top. It's just yesterday, I actually understood why it's
called as " icing on the cake ".
Some photographs to help you out with :
P.S. : The smile
didn't leave me and somehow it stayed throughout the night. Some food for your
thought !!
