This Solitary Plate

Mark prepares for two, actually for more truth be told because he always wants to make sure there is plenty.  And of course leftovers are good.  His is a simple meal.  Beans and carrots amply buttered cooked wrapped in foil upon the barbeque.  A complimentary package of new potatoes, spices, and onions keeps company with the beans and carrots.  Cooked at a high temperature in their own juices a delicious summer fare.  Well marbled two simple steaks thick and juicy marinade in ginger and garlic till soft and receptive to searing heat.  All cooked and prepared with love, for two.  Mark stares at the plates, two meals, one person.  "We are missing bread sticks."  Soupir.  He misses her.
