Evening Cooling and Preparation
The sun finally begins to dip, casting long shadows across the shimmering sand. You meet on the porch to plan for dinner and check the barometer once more.
The heat lingers even as the sun dips, leaving the air heavy and humid over the cottage. The boiled limpets sizzle in the rendered fat, filling the porch with a salty aroma as they prepare the evening meal. The barometer shows a slow drop, suggesting a shift in the weather despite the day's stillness.
The bar is still falling. We should eat the corned beef and the limpets now before it's too dark to see.
wipe sweat from my forehead with a forearm and check the barometer reading again.

Aye. Fire up the stove. I'll get the pan hot.
walk to the kitchen and set the cast iron skillet on the wood stove, adding a spoonful of corned beef fat to render

I'll get the limpets. They're still warm from the boil.
walk into the kitchen and pick up the bowl of limpets from the counter, setting them near the stove.

Kevin — toss the boiled limpets into the hot fat, listening for the sizzle, and stir them with the wooden spoon to coat the shells

Pass me some of the sea beet. I need salt.
sit at the porch table and open my notebook, waiting for the food.

Kevin — reach up to the kitchen shelf, pull down the paper towel with dried sea beet leaves, crumble a handful over the limpets in the pan, and bring the pan to the porch table
