Image
Camping just isn't the same without a few packets of marshmallows smooshed onto skewers with their golden skin bubbling over the orange roar. Which is how we spent our evening and the next day. And there's nothing like marshmallow fluff for breakfast on a cold morning. Leaping flames sounded like... Continue reading

After she left I scrambled around and picked up every single coin, then lay on the floor until the crying stopped. When I could see through my tears, I went straight for a recipe book and made a chocolate mousse pie, my hands shaking as I crushed cookies for the... Continue reading

Cannery Row; Beer Milkshake
Image
While he ate his sandwich and sipped his beer, a bit of conversation came back to him. Blaisedell, the poet, had said to him, "You love beer so much. I'll bet some day you'll go in and order a beer milkshake." It was a simple piece of foolery but it... Continue reading
