I haven't done one of these in a LONG time. It's great to be back The Snippet I am sharing today comes from my newly released book Tripping Over the Edge of Night.
Derrick
tried as he added pepper, salt, paprika and cayenne pepper to the flour and
stirred them together with a fork. “I still don’t get it.”
The
only response from Mason was a laugh as he set about washing the two large red
potatoes Derrick had purchased.
“What?”
“I
tell you what, after dinner I’ll show you what I mean.”
Derrick
cocked an eyebrow at him, huffed and shook his head, before putting the bowl
aside and moving to get out the wings. “Not sure I wanna know.”
“That’s
up to you.”
The
steady thunk, thunk, thunk of Mason cutting up the potatoes filled the room, as
Derrick patted the wings dry and dumped them in the flour, turning them over
and over to get them coated in the seasoning mix. Recipe said to set them aside
in the fridge for twenty-minutes to and hour, so he shoved them in and went
about lining two baking sheets with foil and preheating the oven.
“Goddamnit!”
“Seriously?”
Mason remarked without even looking over. “What did you do to yourself now.”
“Nothing.
Just can’t stop thinking about the damned zip ties now, thank you very much.”
“You’re
welcome,” Mason remarked, snickering as he continued to chop.
LOL...fun with zip ties? ❤️
