Taste Tester

Three word prompt: success, stew, crow

“How do you measure a recipe’s success?”

“I let Arnie decide,” Della answered.

“Arnie?”

Della led the journalist to her back yard. On the picnic table sat three bowls of stew. A huge crow, ignoring two of them, devoured the third. Noticing Della, it croaked, “More, please, Della.”

“That’s Arnie.”

This below the line information is optional, for those who are interested. I love prompts, and three word prompts are challenging, especially in a 50 word story. I like to use random generators but am open to prompts from readers as well.

An appropriate prompt should have two concrete words and one abstract (success, passion, etc.). Feel free to send one along!
