To The LobbyThere is a trick to putting together dinner for one: start right away. Walk in the door, put down the trappings of the day, pull out the cutting board and the knife and place them on the counter. You might not need them yet, but put them out. Look around for something good.
The day has been cold and wet: we get teasers for the seasons sometimes. I got lucky. I had remembered to set a potful of jackson wonder beans soaking the night before, and they went in with some trinity, to cook down and settle over rice. I'm also happy to discover that the chocolate syrup makes a wicked and easy cocoa. I'll have to be careful of that.
The cocoa makes the porch comfortable, just out of reach of the rain. I should start hosting dinners.

We put it down and then we lost it. It all happens in the corner of the eye. Commentary accepted at pen@goob.com, although the traps are agressive and the pointy bits simply drip with dark liquour.
