The kitchen was smoked in with vapor the pans where full oils, cheeses, breads meats and desserts all mixed. Dinner was ready it was going to be grand it was going to be great artists, philosophers, Popes, untouchables, factory workers, even Queens many would come. Gathering together one and all in a spirit of harmony cups raised in celebration of life and love and liberty. Side by side they sat in a blend of cultures and ideas treating each other as equals though elsewhere they might not. And when the feasting is complete and they do their separate ways each one is left a little better understanding each other's ways. -Andreu MacAoidh
