Portobello Sliders by Belinda Roddie You broke up with me on a Monday evening over homemade portobello mushroom sliders, soggy zucchini, and white wine, stilted from the hand of summer pressed over my mouth. You ate three sliders on my Doctor Who- themed plate: Two with bleu cheese, one with artichoke and spinach and feta. Arugula drooped like a sad whisker from your lower lip. When I was done crying over your confession, the whole world lurched forward. Time stopped, but the Youtube video that were watching kept going.
