on why surroundings matter

leek latkes! oh so crisp and crunchy on the outsid leek latkes! oh so crisp and crunchy on the outside, oh so meltingly mellow on the inside… perfection itself. took a few hasty pictures mid-munch as I did not want to let these go cold before I ate them (same for the soft-boiled egg). served ‘em hot with a cool shmear of garlicky skyr, then quickly topped them with dill, chives + crushed red chili before savouring each & every bite with satisfaction and glee
