It was a dark and stormy night.
Really.
We made our way out along the narrow winding beach road
all the way to the very end of Squibnocket Point.
Rain drenched and wind blown we arrived for dinner.
Had a marvelous time trading journeys
and parrot stories
with much raucous laughter and general mayhem
culminating in a detailed recounting of a recent real estate transaction
which went on…in so much detail
that the much anticipated dessert kept being fetched in from the kitchen
only to be sent back as it needed it’s final glazing
and when the tale drew on
out it came again
and back
and again… and so forth
until finally the storyteller had lead us to the merry conclusion
and torched the ramekin tops and spoons were poised for the cracking
and there was much rejoicing.
