It’s Friday Night Drabble Party featuring the Drabbletastic Dancers!

Okay, sorry, no dancers. I just don’t have the budget for them. You’ll have to settle for me in an elf suit doing an awkward jig.

Hey! Come back! There’s free micro-fiction!

Enjoy!

Holiday Roast

“Braising is the way to get the meat tender,” Marcus said.

“Pit cooking,” Clyde replied. “Bury it deep with hot coals then don’t touch for twenty-four hours.”

“Too long, man,” Marcus laughed.

“Stew,” Arlene said. “You get meat and veggies in one dish. Easy to freeze.”

“Like we have a freezer,” Marcus smirked.

“Winter is nature’s freezer,” Arlene smiled.

“That’s weeks away,” Clyde said. “Pit cook it.”

“I’m not an it!” Brian whined.

“However we cook it,” Marcus said. “It kinda has to be dead first.”

“Oops,” Clyde laughed.

Arlene and Marcus joined in the laughter.

Brian did not.

Cheers!
