Fire Grilled Pork Tenderloin With Roasted Vegetables
Mega snapped the tablecloth open. Nothing.Again. A single pecan.
Again. A fuzzy apricot lolled around the surface.
There was a time all manner of food had appeared before her. Hearty stews with thick chunks of potato and carrot. Crusty loaves of fresh bread and chickens with the skins crisped just so.
Like all magic tablecloths, it only had to be spread to provide a feast for any occasion, and most notably, no occasion at all. The cloth had supported weeknight dinners, slumberous midnight snacking, and been the guest of honor at many a family get-together.
Such abundance had become assumed, expected by all who had experienced the lovely sauces, the buttery pastries, the perfectly thin and silky pastas. The degradation of the corporeal is often mirrored in the incorporeal, and Mega knew the threadbare linen was no different. One good snap was all it had left.
Sending a prayer to the gods, old, new, and demi, she closed her eyes and threw the cloth up.
Roast. Pork. Glazed in soy and brown sugar, the smell was unmistakable. Her eyes slanted open to take in the loin, kissed by fire and accompanying a platter of similarly prepared vegetables. White wine that she imagined to be buttery with notes of peach sparkled in a glass decanter.
The most magical of enchanted textiles (Flying carpets? Bewitched satchels? Tales for another day.) had created its final feast.
