holding up the walls with books

 I have to write about it, send those words to her and we make a t-shirt with the store credit I got from working. Como Sessions with Angee Montgomery on Moon Hollow Farm. Included is the pork sandwich in a spicy vinegar topped with the right slaw, one side, large sweet tea heavy $15 combo.


Today I am grateful for my new rooms, their visit, your voice, the dinner, that nap and her clearance of the cat who is now Jafar the tiger. 







"They dressed out the deer and hung it in the junipers to cool and they made a foray on the slope for wood. They built a fire and they cut paloverde poles and cut forked uprights to lay them in and Rawlins skinned the buck out and sliced the meat in strips and draped it over the poles to smoke. When the fire had burned down he skewered the backstraps on two greenwood sticks and propped the sticks with the rocks over the coals. Then they sat watching the meat brown and sniffed the smoke where fat dropped hissing in the coals."

That was Cormac McCarthy describing the beauty of eating meat on page 90 of All the Pretty Horses.
