He hollowed them out as if they were monumental sculptures to be exhibited at The Louvre. Cooking the filling over high heat, with such a sophistication. The tune he hummed was ever so serene and peaceful, easily attracting others his way. The way he organized his ingredients in such a quick, perfect pattern was mesmorizing. Timing and routine was everything with him, one would not want to disrupt this by getting too close. When he was ready, he asked the youngest boy in the audience to assist him. The boy lit up like a lightbulb. The boy was slowly handed the most delicate silver spoon and was ordered to fill the scooped out vegetable shells or "boats" with the magical filling. After doing so, he noticed a gigantic chunk of mozzerella off to his right side. It was wrapped in a thick white terrycloth towel. This was so he could hold it properly as he was shown how to carefully shred and layer the cheese onto the tops of the boats. These sculptural items appeared even more gorgeous and full of character with the added texture on top. The young boy thought to himself that the shape and colors reminded him of picturesque fish he had once encountered. He was then told to gently place these forms of beauty in the oven, while keeping both eyes on them as they baked. Before he knew it, the timer buzzed and the creations were complete. Would they choose to view them simply as unique art forms or choose to indulge in their original works of art?
