Did I hear someone say "rosemary?" Got it right here. Won't do much for the chili, though. Here's a batch of dried oregano, in case you need it.
If we've acquired a ship's cat, there'll be no more leaving the lids off things, y'all hear?
And add "Catbox" to the deck of chores for our tallcard game.
Complications, complications.....

Thanks, rosemary and oregano will both come in handy, seein' as the only tomato base I could find was some dehydrated tomato soup powder. Still, the beans are simmering nicely now, and there was a bit of chopped bell pepper in the back of the freezer.
But here's the real good news--while I was searching in the freezer, I found a pint bottle of peppermint schnaps, half-covered in frost, but still good.
Maybe we should add "defrost the fridge" to the chores list...

Sommat smells good. That food done yet? 'Bout time someone sides me did some cookin round here!
Mighty tasty.
Beer and chili. Best remind Cap'n not to take us outta the world until we air out this monstrosity. Too much crew, lots of beans, spices, and brew. Explosive combination...

*walks in*
This crew is somethin' special now. Everyone's cookin' and that's just fine. Particularly as Kaele is sleepin'. Someone remind me to limit that girls weekend furloughs to half a weekend.
*glances down at Kaele snoring on the couch, grabs a tea cup and pours a cup of Earl Grey and grabs a chair and stretches her legs out*
It's fine to be home.

Ah, my wife Kansas has just walked in:
"Oh, Earl Gray, how nice. And look at how peaceful Kaele looks, all curled up nice like. Pour me a cuppa, please, think I'll get myself all comfy too. Umm, can I have some of that chili? No beans please. Yum. That man of mine sure can cook."

Hey thanks a bunch I've been looking for some of this for awhile. I owe ya one.

I'll save the rest for later Chindi. Now I hear there's some chili floatin' around here, hope nobody minds if I have some.
*takes bowl and walks towards chili pot and scoops some into bowl*

*walks into the galley with a lit cigar, notices the sleepin' crew, quietly gathers up some of the left-overs, and heads back toward the cargo bay to finish his repairs/modifications on the Mule*
*stops just before leaving...turns around and plucks SEVEN of the finest remaining strawberries and puts them in the fridge (The Captain and the rest of the crew would kill us if we ate them all before they got back)*
*looks around at the rest of his comrades, dims the gas lamp, smiles around his cigar, and leaves*
We will hold...we hold till Mal gets back.

*Yawn*...
Boy, everybody nodded off? Musta been the schnapps. Or the milk. Or the beer...
Well--time for breakfast anyway. Let's see-- We got some powdered eggs, canned milk for thickenin', leftover chili -- any of those tortillas left?
Ain't nothin' like Huevos Rancheros in the morning!
Can somebody put some more Earl Gray on?
