I must confess that the Malt Society, few of their 'spirited' members and their equally 'spirited' (if not a bit more) wives have been able to create a vortex around me and it is difficult for me to resist that 'pull'. Not that I want to resist too. So when my husband mentioned about an invitation to a get-together at one of the malt-lover's house, I immediately ran to check if I had matching accessories with the saree and my husband booked himself on a return flight from overseas just to be there over the weekend !
Now that this was my third attendance in such family get together' of Malt Society members, few faces have become familiar and I have now become familiar with the pulse of such gatherings. When few people interact without being dictated by their ego, social standing, and corporate background, for few hours, we all get a chance to be ourselves!
....and some 'sipping and nosing' of single malt literally transforms everyone a 'free spirited living being' without any inhibition.
The wonderful host and hostess, with their heartfull of warmth , the adorable menfolk (I mean it, seriously, whether in towel/s or fully clothed !), beautiful ladies with their stock of informative gossip(?), is too lethal a combination not to nurture a hang-over post party. ......and here Tabarak deserves a special mention for his tongue-tingling Margaritas!
In our perceived sense of emotional security, friends are a vital link. As we still consider ourselves 'fresh arrivals' in this city, apprehensions as to acceptance was reasonably high. Since we have been accepted with warmth and affection and without doubt , both of us (myself and my husband) will always remain grateful to all of you, ladies and gentlemen.....
.....and on a lighter note, it's a bonus for me, nevertheless, that I can indulge myself for some harmless dose of flirting with few of the MSA heroes and I allow my husband to such privilege as well in case he feels the need ! After all, after few sips of single malt and Tabarak's mind-blowingly sinful Margaritas, will we blame ourselves if the mind stops following logic for some hours?
So all of you wonderfully 'spirited' malt lovers, never stop spreading your goodness among people, your love for the spirit and never loose the spirit of living life on your own terms. To me, each one of you are 'the rarest of rare brew' !!!
