Brown that ground meat well
Gather legumes of all kinds
Spiced tomato sauce
Let simmer all day to blend
Hot chili for chilly days

If you’ve never eaten a molten lava cake, I suggest you give it a try! That is right where my mind went when I saw the flash fiction prompt this week from the Carrot Ranch.
“Nana, pulllleeze.”
Tension filled the air, thicker than the fragrant deliciousness wafting around the room. Naturally, the young ones were more than anxious as they planted themselves on the floor smack dab in front of the oven door.
One would think they had never been fed. One would think they had nothing else better to do. One would think they had no patience.
You could barely hear the timer bell for the chorus of cheers as Nana grabbed the oven mitts and pulled out the baking dishes. It was her joy to bake molten lava cakes for the grandchildren.

Well
I tried
And fell short
To make dinner
Come out really good
Oh, there’s lots of flavor
Somewhat, a bit of texture
But I would not serve this to you
I will eat the seven pints myself
And try a different method next time ‘round
