Nolen Gur Panna Cotta

Winter is fading away. Silently. On hushed tiptoes.
The enigma of the mist over the lake no longer greets my sleep-riddled eyes as I draw open the curtains these mornings.
Nor does the truant sun cast a kaleidoscope of images on the white-washed wall as I walk into my kitchen to brew myself a Darjeeling.
Pristine white buds have started to arrive on my jasmine vine.
And did I not hear plaintive strains of the cuckoo ringing from afar ?

I open the window.
Let the mellow morning breeze play with my tresses.
Take a sip of my tea. (The pleasure of a first flush. I smile.)
All ready to embrace the colours and joie de vivre of impending spring.

I shall miss grey winter though.
Her bounty of seasonal produce.
The fragrant rice.
The gorgeous greens.
The onion stalks and green peas that shall soon be gone.
And of course my favorite. Nolen gur.

Back to my kitchen.
Two tubes still stand proud. From the original prized lot of twelve.
A couple more ordered though. Now on their way to be delivered.

So a nolen gur panna cotta it is to celebrate the gur.
