Free wood (100 words)
I love November. Short days, long nights, cold winds. Humans are abundant in November chopping wood to heat their homes. Always hasty, the humans make mistakes. Like thinking they can get something for free.
My sign worked beautifully. Like moths to a flame, “FREE FIREWOOD!” brought dinner to my doorstep.
My Wendigo family eats well tonight: chilled eyeball crudités, lung tourtiere pot stickers with nasal fluid dipping sauce, ribs with belly fat glaze and liver pudding with warm blood drizzle for dessert.
Care to join us, friend? You’ll eat well, too. It’s BYOB so don’t forget to bring your body.

Will the warm blood drizzle be served in demitasse cups?
If not, I’ll bring my giant friend, Hugo along. He’s good for some Sizzlin’, Smokin’ Hot Spelunkers (patent pending).

I believe he just received had some ceramic sauce bowls and planned to use those. Poor Amazon delivery driver 😦

Well, bloody hell.
I’ve already made the dinner party menu. Now I need to go back and add all this: “chilled eyeball crudités, lung tourtiere pot stickers with nasal fluid dipping sauce, ribs with belly fat glaze and liver pudding with warm blood drizzle for dessert.”
Very funny. Well imagined and well done.

Is this feast limited to ogres or can any beast attend? I’ll bring the toe jam bruschetta on toasted kidney slices…

Anyone can attend, but only if I can have that toe jam recipe!

Well there is a real message to this dystopian nightmare! I could not agree with you more about people expecting things for free…and metaphorically therefore deserving their fate…

Yihihihikes! Such a detailed menu. I’m sorry, but I won’t attend. (And I was going to a place that announced free firewood, was a barn full of old wood scraps and furniture, I guess I was lucky.) What a horribly fun story.

Oh, oh my. I’m afraid I can’t make it due to being incredibly busy, antisocial and attached to my body at the moment. However, I will be sure to pass on the invite to a few people who … well, I think they deserve to be – I mean have – to have a nice, delicious meal for – I mean with – some gracious neighbors like you all.
