waxing_____________?

[Alison Murie]

'But his overall tone is a gentle one, as he tries to demystify his
diet by devoting a chapter to "A Day in the Life of a Vegan," in which
he characterizes himself as "cooking-challenged," while waxing about
the nutty flavor of organic avocadoes.'
--from an article in  Salon on Jeffrey Masson.

Subtle effort to engage the reader by making him(her) supply the
"eloquent" or "poetic" or whatever??
