Коллажи с цитатами из любимой моей Джоанны Харрис


"Scent of woodsmoke in a cup; a dash of cream, a sprinkle of sugar. Bitter orange, your favourite, 70 per cent darkest chocolate over thick-cut oranges from Seville. Try me. Taste me. Test me".

"The gardens are crisp and bright today, pebbled with sunlight beneath a kaleidoscope of autumn leaves. But the wind was still blowing in my ears, and the sound of the trees all around us made it immense, like an ocean, like a monsoon, sweeping the sky with dead-leaf confetti and the scent of that river, that winter, that wind".

"The wind does curious things to people: it turns them around and makes them dance".

"The wind can be seductive that way; bringing wild thoughts and wilder dreams".


"But there's always time for hot chocolate, made with milk and grated nutmeg, vanilla, chilli, brown sugar, cardamon and 70 per cent couverture - the only chocolate worth buying, she says - and it tastes rich and slightly bitter on the back of the tongue, like caramel as it begins to turn. The chilli gives it a touch of heat - never too much, just a taste - and the spices give it that churchy smell that reminds me of Lansquenet somehow, and the nights above the chocolate shop".
