An enticing food moment

As always, there are many. This one actually doesn’t describe the food, though. “‘Will you join us for Sunday dinner?’ Armand asked Amelia. Who nodded.” I picture a roast and vegetables but mostly I picture the fellowship of the people gathered. That image is inspiration to prepare a Sunday dinner and even invite others to join.

“A few minutes later they (Armand and Billy) were in the Gamaches’ kitchen. Armand had cut slices from a fresh miche from Sarah’s Boulangerie, and made egg salad and tomato sandwiches, while Billy poured them each a glass of lemonade.” The lemonade is pink and Armand tries to say that it is because of his granddaughters or Reine-Marie, but Billy was not fooled; he knew that “it was actually Armand who liked the pink lemonade. He took a large bite of the sandwich, the bread soft and chewy and the crust crisp. The egg salad had an unexpected hint of curry.” Just the description of the textures make it seem like it can be tasted.
