Lasagna

 

He had a hankering for lasagna, and he had a recipe that was just the right size for one person.

He’d checked his ingredients. He had noodles, tomato sauce, eggs, and parmesan cheese. All he needed was mozzarella and ricotta from the store.

Assembling the dish, he stopped in horror with a container in mid-air.

What he’d thought was a container of parmesan cheese was…not parmesan cheese.

Slowly backing away from the mixing bowl, he put the container of sawdust and mealworms back into the fridge.

He sighed in relief that he lived alone.

Except for his spider, of course.
