The Abbreviated Adventures of Mogey & Smush: Quarantine Episode 23

Mogey and Smush were connoisseurs of many things: cat-themed jigsaw puzzles, cat-themed jigsaw puzzle accessories, and the artworks of Felix Bunch, kinetic sculptor. But most of all, they were connoisseurs of meat. 

Like all good connoisseurs, they prized the opinions of true craftsmen, and in the field of meat, the finest craftsmen could be found at Bill Bo's Butchershop. Many a day Mogey and Smush would browse the Staff Picks at Triple B until they found something fresh and innovative.

"Look at this one!" Smush claimed."Veronica describes this porterhouse as 'sturdy and nostalgic; the kind of steak you want to curl up with on a cold winter's night.'"

"Mmm," Mogey replied. "How about this polish sausage? Felipe says it's 'smart, sassy, and provocative.'"

"Big Denny's got some thoughts on the new brisket: 'If you liked MacHull Farms' last brisket, you'll LOVE--'" 

"Herman's got a new pick!" Mogey interrupted. Smush immediately dropped the brisket and rushed to his pal's side. "'A ground chuck redolent of love and loss,'" Mogey intoned. "'The sort of meat that comes along once in a lifetime - if you're lucky. Once you've molded it, seasoned it, and cooked it into a double cheeseburger, your life will forever be changed.'"

"Herman," Mogey and Smush sighed dreamily as they brushed tears from their eyes and loaded up their shopping cart with meat.
