#37: sumptuous

a sumptuous feast
of cuisine and Chocolat:
a sumptuous film!
Picture
One of my all-time favorite films, Chocolat is as rich as its subject, in quality, acting, story, cinematography and character. There are so many wonderful scenes... but the table I want to sit at is this one when The Feast is served. [cue mouth watering]

A confessed chocolate addict, after seeing this movie, I looked all over for "spicy" chocolate, but could not find any. I do believe the movie Chocolat inspired a number of makers to introduce such delicious bars. 

DEFINITION of this 3-syllable adjective is:
  1. entailing great expense, as from choice materials, fine work, etc.; costly: a sumptuous residence.
  2. luxuriously fine or large; lavish; splendid: a sumptuous feast.

    The Word of the Day comes from Dictionary.com. Use the word in your own haiku and add to the comments.

    Improve your vocabulary and your haiku skills at the same time! If you don't know the definition, it's below, but see if you can figure it out from the haiku and/or image. 

    Poet and designer, David Alan Foster has been experimenting with haiku since the '70s. He has inspired (or possibly offended) many with said experiments.
