Simple Pleasures

I did an elaborate Mother's Day brunch earlier for my roommate's grandmother as she is fairly frail at 80 and it's getting harder for her to get around. A bit ago I found myself craving a simple sandwich. So after sticking my nose into our local organic grocer I've come home with cheddar/garlic sourdough bread, avocado, bean sprouts, creme fraiche and this branch of tomatoes whose fragrance inspired the whole thing. There is a Rose chilling and I'm going to put my feet up and watch the sun go down in a bit. Simple pleasures.
