Weekly Contest #362
One pound of white asparagus Five ounces of porcini mushrooms Five ounces of golden chanterelles Four cups of water One cup of milk Butter, salt, black pepper, and onion powder to taste One migraine and a heaping helping of nausea Carla held the tanned and wrinkled scrap of paper her grandmother had always promised would one day be hers. It never seemed like much of a gift or reward. In the kitchen, here today, it felt like a punishment. A lifetime sentence. Carla groaned as she walked towards the cabinet.

It’s been up for a while now if I’m being honest and I guess this is the day I “pay for my sins” or whatever a “good Catholic boy” like me is supposed to believe. I don’t really know what I believe these days. No time for theoreticals and so called divine judgements, anyway, when man’s laws are about to shaft me.I’ll admit, I deserve this. My penance. What I don’t deserve is to be stuck in all this traf...
