PASSIONATE RATIONS

Alliteration is fun food for thought. From time to time I look up words in the dictionary, even when I know the definition, just to see them placed in their alphabetical context, surrounded by similar sounds and shapes. Sometimes, doing this results in happy surprises, such as today, when I discovered the word “savior” before “savor.” Is there a savior for savor? There really should be. How about a savor saver? Or a savvy savior?

My sentence, constructed primarily of words from today’s dictionary page:

A sauceboat, saucepan and saucer sat on some satin atop the savannah, with some sauerbraten, sauerkraut, sausage and savarin, accompanied by sauternes and sauvignon blanc, awaiting some savvy savage or savior with savoir faire to sample and savor the flavor.

Mmm. Mmmm. Good.
