The challenge word this week is Slab and Charlie is watching Dean in the Bunker's kitchen. A longer version of this will follow as a chapter of 'A Moment with My Brother' next week if you feel like reading more.
Dean is chopping vegetables.
Chop-chop-chop, the blade flies fluidly matching the heavy-rock 4/4 beat that he hums to.
The uber-sharp tip near-kisses the skin of his fingers as he skillfully advances the aromatics to their necessary demise.
The honey-honed blade tings percussively on the cold, slick stone with each powerful thrust and my eyes are drawn to the pretty pinky-grey swirls of the marble slab that is Dean's custom cuttery.
His skill with the glittering knife is surprising, maybe almost frightening and I am reminded I'm glad he is on my side.
Thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed it.
