Mama didn’t like when Jase burnt things in the kitchen, the smell lingered for days. Jase sighed to himself and hungrily walked the remnants of the meatloaf to the trash can. As he opened the lid, a crumpled piece of notebook paper sat on top of rubbish…

It read “LOW AND SLOW” in neat block capital letters. He opened the folded note and read the writing inside. “Turn the heat down and cook it longer. Trust me. Love, T.G.” From that day on, Jase became a great chef, thanks to the subtle intervention of The Trashcan Gourmet.
