Spam and Rice
Simple food, simple joy comfort food, comfort, full stop. Easy to make, made with love, for the taste, for those who will taste, it, tasty treat, simple, good. Rice cooker steams, warms the kitchen. The crackle as the frying pan fries, little meaty cubes, sizzle sizzle sizzle; something like bacon, tho’ not as much grease, …
