Great smelling food made my mouth w

Great smelling food made my mouth water. I kept my eyes closed for a little longer. The spices reminded me of holidays I had been on. The smell of the meat took me to barbecues we had had in the back garden when there was the rare glimpse of sun. I took one hearty breath in and as I let it out, I opened my eyes to see a table full of all the food you could imagine. It was like Christmas on steroids. All laid out on a long wooden table, like the ones you see in medieval pictures. I felt like I was at the last supper — although I was in the middle, so there were some obvious differences. I sat back in my chair, and looked around the table to see all my friends and family — I hadn’t seen any of them for such a long time. It was amazing to have them all here, with me, now. I began to smile. And I could feel my eyes begin to well. Everyone was having a verbal tennis match; I couldn’t get a single word that any of them were saying. It didn’t matter though. In-between breaks I could hear the voices of my friends and that was all I needed. My stomach soon reminded me of why I was there. It wasn’t to enjoy the company ofothers, oh no, it was to eat all the food I could. In the middle was a large chicken, or turkey...a bird anyway; I reached out and ripped off a leg — feeling like a barbarian; I loved it. I turned it around in my hands for a moment, watching the light glisten off of the crispy skin. There was no point in waiting anymore. I brought it to my mouth and took a great big bite and immediately began to choke.
