Wow. Godfried. What a character. The “intrigue”. What a concept. Love how he rates to the thousandth decimal, HA! Sometimes the mystery of the thing becomes more important than the thing itself.

It’s so amazing how Substack allowed me to find one of my favorite writers (you)! This was such a great piece. So well thought out, and so funny.

I am so glad I ran into the word “bistrot” yesterday. I had to make an Esperanto neologism for it, of course.

Great story! I make potatoes a bit like that too.

Smiling all the way. Its a cozy, wonderful story of food for the soul. Being part Polish and part Alsation I understand the love of potatoes. xox
