I want to do at least another one thousand words, but Tatia, my main female character sort of had a little meltdown and it threw me. Threw her too. I don’t think either of us knew where it came from. Maybe she needs a nice big bowl of pasta or something. Jane made her some berry tea. Maybe something else will happen while she’s sleeping it off.
Meanwhile her advisor sees the big picture. He’s turned out to have more than a twinkle in his eye, which amuses me.
And I don’t like to brag, but I’m gonna just lay it out there: I have my smaller stockpot full of kickass turkey stock. The house smells great and all I have to do is add more veggies and the meat to it. Kickass.
