Time flies, and it’s Fiction in 50 words again already. Check out other offerings at the Bookshelf Gargoyle.
This time, the prompt is ‘marriage of convenience’. I give you:
The second date
She had challenged her blind date to dinner at her place. Whatever he could find in her fridge and cupboards. He was a chef, after all.
He accepted.
“Ah, mushrooms and eggs – a marriage made in heaven!”
A marriage of convenience, more like, she thought. He just wasn’t for her.

Yes, but I reckon mine was better than that chef’s!

Sounds like the date isn’t going well! =O
There are more issues here than what he can cook from her hit-or-miss grocery shopping. 🙂
Hi Jemima – I think your fridge needs to be more discriminatory in future and refuse mushrooms! I guess then it might just be scrambled eggs … ah well – he’ll seduce someone else in due course with his cheffy skills -he was leaving time for other things !! Cheers Hilary
I swear I didn’t read this before I did mine!!
