“Lunch Renewal”:  a protein wisdom sudden fiction

‘Microwave on high for 4 minutes’?  Why, even I can do that, he thought.

And so it happened that for the first time since she left him, the wheels of her suitcase tracing a trail of broken black scuffs to the lip of the foyer, he enjoyed a nice hot lunch—in this case, low-carb roasted turkey breast with mushroom gravy and a good-sized serving of cut green beans.

    …enjoyed, that is, until he raised the first tender, steaming bite of all-white turkey meat bathed in its creamy smooth sauce to his mouth and plunged it in with a great gusto he hadnt felt in months.. Later in the day, after the condescending nursing tech at the hospital emergency room assured him for the third time that his soft pallet and tongue were merely scalded and not permanently cauterized, he thought to himself.. “I guess I should have waited the 4 minutes before serving, like the instructions said…”

    -or more precisely, he said;

    “I geth I thoud haf waited tha fowa minus befowa suvveen, like tha inthucsans said..”

    The best part was he didn’t have to share it;

    the worst part, it was all there was in the kitchen.

    —in this case, low-carb roasted turkey breast with mushroom gravy and a good-sized serving of cut green beans…

    … all processed into a smooth and creamy green-grey mixture for the discerning palates of babies everywhere. As he rolled the first bite of the warm, tasty concoction around in his mouth, he thought to himself “Hey, this Gerber stuff aint half bad..”

    Is that supposed to be foyer or voyeur, because either one kind of works, you know?

    Satchel: “Daaadddyy! I want some! Gimmeee !”

    Jeff: “I will.. Just a moment sweetie.. Daddy needs to taste it a little more to make sure its not too hot for your mouth.. just a few more bites ought to be enough..”

    (thinks to himself “mmm.. actually pretty good.. maybe tomorrow I’ll try that meatloaf with peas and carrots..&#8221wink

  9. She didn’t leave you for good, did she?????

    Sudden fiction.  Fiction.

    Probably just went to look for something that isn’t low carb.

  12. gail says:

    I think Joe must be mistaken. Foyer is spelled correctly.

    I can’t remember. Did he sell the Jeep?

  14. A dog and a truck…ya got a hit.

  15. Whew… I thought that X-Box thing might have already done it’s dirty work.

  16. Alpha Baboon says:

    Muhahahahahahahaha !

    I’m divorced, so I can play XBOX anytime I feel like it.. for as long as I like.. Even when the Doctor Phil show is on.. I can even walk right up to the TV and switch Oprah off and turn XBOX on..

    Just that easy..

    Try that trick at your house sometime married guys…

    Dr. Phil and Oprah programs are not allowed in our house. There are some women who’d rather watch Spike TV…
