Today’s my day to offer up a prompt for Linda’s Just Jot it January. That prompt is CHEWY.

Instead of writing a story, I’m doin’ a thing. Sitting comfortably in my favorite coffee shop with a decaf Cafe Miel, with a strip of Bison & Beef Pemmican (additional flavors of ground sumac berries & maple syrup).

Best jerky I’ve ever had, a nice shot of salty with sweet. Chewy, yes, but not dry and leathery like the grocery store variety. Great afternoon boost as we launch into another…um…eventful week.

The sun is shining, getting a nice melt down. And note the sign on the wall. Let’s honor our beautiful, inclusive country. Most of us here have ancestry that relied on Lady Liberty’s promise. Let’s renew that.
