Someone stripped the world

Today felt like the world was stripped from her usual things.
I went to a friend because he had finally agreed to let me cook with him.
We went to the fish market and normally on a Saturday it is full and crowded and loud.
Today it was almost silent. It was just beautiful.
The sky was not a normal color, but some orange creamy color. I think now I can say it was a creme brulee color.
(which I had made for dinner... No I am not an expert in deserts although the cook did seem to think so, because all he sees me eat are sweet chocolate thingies.)
(But may I add to this it turned out to be a great creme brulee, at least in my world :))
The meal itself was great. I wanted to help but I am definitely no expert on Japanese food cutting thingies.
The funny thing was the entire meal tasted like the fish market earlier that day. Pure, silent and known but somehow completely different. Stripped for all the things I normally taste. But somehow the stripped version of the experience is better that the original experience.

It is just tranquil, simple and perfect.
