Everyone knew that Elena’s Spicy Beef Stew was the best wet savoury
dish in the state. But every year when the society cook-off happened, something
came up, an uncle had a heart attack, the corn fields got beetles, some
emergency forced her to pull out of the competition.
This year, since I was the new chairwoman of the prize committee,
I went to her homestead and told her how we were going to give her a special
prize for lost awards.
She was surprisingly upset at this.
I was confused, until I accidentally opened the larder door
and saw inside.
