I am in the produce section with my girlfriend. Her name is Anna and
we are twenty andwe look like sisters. Anna had to get some food for
dinner and asked me to go. But I'd rather be here with you.I wish I
had someone here to watch TV with. I haveon a short miniskirt and a
t-shirt. . .Call me now at 1-800-555-1212.
I 've been looking through the jalapenos trying to find onethat is
big and hot. They are all shriveled and brown andtoo small to satisfy.
When I reach for silantro the handsome produce manager with biceps like
muskmelon turns onthe little sprinklers and I get so wet I can hardly
stand it. I take off my pantys. My t-shirt is tight and I'm squeezing
the avacados and wondering if these firm green fruits are gettin g as
excited as I am.
I've got to keep calm or there's no guacomole.
I've been stroking the tomatos a little too hard, and one shoots its
seed across my damp pantys. The produce manager sees this and laughs.
Saucily I
askhim if he knows how it feels to have seed in your underwear
and he says
keep talking like that and I'll tell you in a minute.
I 'll make our first dinner together totally memarable. I need
you to dice my jalapenos, take the giant seeds outof my avacados and mash
their milky green flesh.
I
want you to gently prod my bare
tomato with your shiny cutlery and watch its crimson juices spreadacross
the cutting bord. . .Call me now at 1-800-555-1212.
When we get home my friend Anna makes Ceasar salad. She is taking
the hearts of Romaine and gently coaxing their little leaves apart and
running them under the faucet until they are all wet. She tearsthem
into bits and puts them in the
salad spinner. She grabs the handle
with her firm white hands and spins it so fast jets of water spert across
the room. This gets us all wet.
I get a lemon and squeze it between my fingers and feel its sour
juice run down my fingers into the bowl. Then
I geta hard white egg
and gently tapit against the bowl until it yields to my will and its
firm reluctant shell splits open and the milkyy ovum runs out. Then I feel
my body tense as I reach for the whisk. My breathing gets fastand short
and I
hold the whisk gently and swirl the wire in my viscous eggy oil.
When it starts to emulsify I moan and shake and my head starts to spin.
The whole time Im wondering if the co-mingling jjuices in my bowl are
going to turn fluffy and white
or just laythere uesless and spent.
Anna has opened a tin of anchovies and she rubs it in my face.
I inhale deply their fishy aroma and Inotice that they face every which
way, so the heads of some are embeddedin the crotches of their neighbors.
These are shameless wonton fishh. Their earthy odor permeates the air
while I 'm whisking myjuices and
trying to control my desires. Anna
puts the letuce and dressing into a bowl and flings it with her giant
fork and spoon. I shriek and squeal watching Anna's dominance over
letuce.I don't know if I'll ever toss salad withanother woman but it
sure would be nice to do it here and now
with you. . .Call me now at

I smell the anchovies and see the milky fluids in my bowl come together
and
I moan and shriek but do not stop whisking. Soon there is ceaseless
banging at my door and Anna opens it and the police are
there and they
say just what the heck is going on hereand they find Anna's collection
of pills
from manylands
and though I am wet and my tshirt is tight and
the handcuffs are unyielding I say, look, LOOK! I just made mayonaise.
I am in jail with my girlfriend Anna. We look like
sistersand we will
be here until we are thirty seven.There is another woman here named
Ethel. She is wearing tight striped clothes and has biceps the size of
muskmelons. For our first meal together
they served us long firm noodles
and crimson meatballls the size of your fist. . .Call me now at
