It has been fun spending time with Kyle, and at 18 his interests are maturing a little bit as the reality of self-sufficiency creeps ever closer. As such, he has been more of a presence in the kitchen and at the grill, making observations and asking questions.
"So you're scraping the lime skin onto the raw fish?" he asked rhetorically yesterday.
"I'm adding lime zest to the marinade," I translated, "but basically, yeah."
Then I tapped a bit of the grated zest into his palm. "Smell that, then taste it."
"Wow!" he said. "I can see why you use that."
