So i had this flashback tonight while I was sitting at the dinner table by myself – of course everyone else was done and had moved on to other things, yet i was still munching on some grapes –
The image from one of my favorite movie series (Emma, you will appreciate this): National Lampoon’s European Vacation. While the family is on the airplane they each dream about different things – the Griswold daughter, Audrey, starts dreaming about being the soul member of a Louis XIV-style feast in which she can’t handle. The food keeps coming and coming and she doesn’t have time to eat it all – just watch it for yourself……..Audrey's Dream
So needless to say as I was sitting there gorged, yet still masticating some grapes with GD pepins my thoughts migrate to this image and how I felt like I had just blown up eating sickening delicious French gastronomy – included on the menu was: Potatoes, Rack of Lamb, Bread, and a Fruit Tray of grapes, clementines, and a new fruit, Kaki (which I found out is a persimmon – I’ve heard of it but never eaten it)
What an AWESOME movie.
