Pittsburgh Flash Fiction Gazette

Writing flash fiction and blogging can make a writer mighty hungry.  The Old Soldier does his own cooking.  Nothin’ fancy.  Just good food to keep body and soul together.

Yesterday, the Old Soldier made chilli.  First he peeled several pieces of garlic.  Then he cut up a red pepper.  And then he cut up two fat jalapeno peppers.

The garlic, red pepper and jalapenos went into a pan of slowly browning lean ground meat.  Once the ground meat was brown it was drained and dumped into a crock pot of kidney beans and tomato sauce.  Chilli powder was added and the concoction was allowed to cook.

Now, the Old Soldier can have a delicious meal any time during the next few days just by heating up a bowl of chilli.
