lagilmanWhen in the middle of revisions, it is important to ensure that the author does not attempt to live on chocolate, caffeine and carbs alone. Red meat is called for, at least once a day.
However, not all authors are, shall we say, ept in the kitchen. Or, indeed, have any interest in becoming ept.
So here's a quick, pre-tested way to feed the beast-brain without causing a fuss.
Take two small lamb chops. Rinse, pat dry, and set aside.
In a bowl or plastic bag, mix:
enough quality olive oil to cover/coat the chops
3-5 pinches of chipolte (depending on your preferences, and yes, you can find this in your local supermarket!)
about half that amount, pinchwise, of brown sugar
a splash of mild vinegar
Marinate the chops in the mixture for at least an hour. Grill. Consume*, fighting off the felines as best you can.
Go back to work.
*green salad optional -- I had an apple, instead, while waiting for the meat to be done.
