Chapter 33

??Come on then, let??s be having you,?? Joey said, opening the door.

Joey sat at his kitchen table and watched Kevin work. The smaller man had delved into the refrigerator and pulled out a couple of boned breasts of lamb, then after removing a few items from the pantry, set to work. The smells that were soon created made Joey??s stomach rumble.

Not able to stand it any longer, he asked, ??Pup, what you making???

??Oh, uh, I remember seeing a chef on the telly making this the other day. He said it was kosher.??

??You know I don??t really stick to that.??

??Yeah, but??well it sounded good anyway.??

??Certainly smells good. What is it???

??Oh, sorry. It??s lamb with apricot stuffing. I was lucky that you had all the ingredients.??

??That??s my mother??s doing. I couldn??t tell you half the things in those cupboards.??
