It was almost midnight on Friday, I was alone in the TV room and a horror movie was about to start in a few minutes. Suddenly, there were strange noises coming from the kitchen. I couldn’t make out the sounds. Familiar midnight noises in the kitchen usually consist of the door of the fridge opening and closing, cabinet doors opening and closing, cutlery touching ceramic… you know, all the sounds that go with making a sandwich.
But on Friday night, the sounds were different. For a moment there, I did wonder if my mind was playing tricks on me. I was all psyched up to watch a horror movie, so, perhaps… you know, the power of suggestion? I turned down the volume of the TV and listened. The sounds just kept going. I stood up and, barefoot, started tiptoeing down the stairs. Better sure than stupid, right?
Shucks, it was Speedy making fruit salad. No wonder the sounds were unfamiliar. Peeling and slicing fruits, whipping cream…
About an hour earlier, he drove Sam to a friend’s house where she was spending the night, he passed by the supermarket apparently because the last time I checked, we were out of cream.
Me: “What’s the big idea…?”
Him: “We still have strawberries…”
Riiiggghht. We still had strawberries, bananas and apples so it made sense to buy a pack of kiwis, a pack of seedless grapes, a can of peaches, a can of lychees, cream and sweetened condensed milk to make fruit salad? I suppose there’s some logic there somewhere. Or, perhaps, just a bad case of craving. The fruit salad was delicious though so who was I to complain?
My imagination did kick off, about the not so ordinary strange sounds. And that was Friday midnight! I love kiwi especially its juice form.
midnight cravings hehehe… at least medyo healthy
witsandnuts, imagine if it were Friday the 13th hahaha
mella, right — medyo hehehe Shucks, cream is soooo comforting, I don’t know why. Perhaps. same reason why ice cream relaxes.
was thinking na baka haunted yung house on a hill! yun pala, gutom lang
Such a healthy snack! Kakatuwa naman si insan.
hi connie…alone in the house ba? mention of strawberries. hmmmm romantic yata hindi pang horror LOL
sorry can’t resist to make the comment
Dinah, craving more than gutom. That was about 2 hours lang after dinner. LOL
Nikita, tumataba daw sya (sssshhhhhh…)
Cocoy, romance in the kitchen? Pwede rin HAHAHAHAHA
At least may initiative si Speedy
Heto, it’s 12.48 a.m. now — Sam’s turn to show some initiative. She’s making crepes. hehehe
