Everything goes with food. We celebrate
birthdays, promotions, engagements, weddings, breakups, death, and everything
in between with some sort of refreshment. It's the glue that makes a gathering,
big or small, work.
In "Sleeping
Roses" Sophie Berkeley is a woman on the edge. The edge of life, love,
and possibly death. The pivotal moments always seem to happen to her around
food.
She spills her secrets to
her best friend over a Cobb Salad “...her heart torn to shreds like the lettuce
leaves in her salad.”
Her best friend tells her
to talk to a divorce attorney over chicken marsala “...I haven’t been this full
in a long time.”
She hears a funny
childhood memory about the man she's falling for over soda at the food court
“...I'm talking foundation, eye shadow, eyeliner, mascara, blush and lipstick.
The whole nine yards.”
Over a dinner of garlic
chicken, Sophie's best friend drunkenly confesses. “...Lookgirlie.
I'mthemotherlyone, notyou. Stopbugginme anlet's eat.”

wouldn't be the same without food. If you'd like to read more about Sophie, and
