Stare at it.
Pick it up.
Think about where it came from.
About whose hands got it from there to here.
And prepared it.
Ignore the message drilled into our heads since childhood that mealtime isn’t a place or a time for frivolity.
Frivolity is exactly the point.
And I’d hate to waste even one opportunity to ponder the wonder of the infinitely diverse foods that power our lives.
I’d hate to have missed one of the fundamental experiences of childhood.
All because we were told to behave.
All because we grew up and were expected to fall in line.
In the end, winning the best-behaved trophy isn’t the goal.
Squeezing the most out of the journey, however, is.
Even if it involves playing with an egg from the hotel breakfast buffet.
