I found the depth of love in the crisper drawer.
It was a saved bit of cucumber you left for me, so that I could complete my salad.
I know how much you love cucumber and you would have happily eaten the entire piece, but for me.
You restrained yourself because you knew my salad would be just that much more enjoyable.
And you would take it upon yourself to ensure our grocery list is appropriately updated, so that I won’t have to worry about it.
I will be sure to offer you a taste or two from my fork.
