Writing: You Can Pickle It

Relish, as a noun, comes from Old French relais, reles, "something remaining, that which is left behind," from relaisser "to leave behind" (Online Etymology Dictionary). When put to motion, as a verb, it is both "to give pleasure" and "to take pleasure in"--to release.

Writing as a gesture of relish asks: how much vinegar per parts vim; brine words whole or quartered and drawn; water bath and vacuum seal or fresh off the page; rendered truth or by the book; preserve upon canning or serve upon sleeve?

Virginia Woolf stated: “For pleasure has no relish unless we share it.”
I invite you to share your RELISH here on this page. What will you savor; what will you release?
