The longer a marinade is applied, the more intense the flavour. The longer we allow ourselves to savour the anticipation of a positive moment, the more we enjoy it when it finally arrives. The hard work and effort you have been cultivating is ready to start paying off. Are you ready to now taste the success you were hoping for? You can continue to baste this situation as long as you like, but at some point it will have to be time to dig in and savour the rewards of all your efforts.
