FUSION BREAD PAKORA - MY MIDNIGHT HAUL

Suddenly in the middle of the night hunger strikes. Is it a fragment of my imagination, maybe I am dreaming. A rumble, followed by a grumble breaks the pin drop silence of the night. It is my tummy, gently tugging me awake. I quietly turn to see Mr. S in a deep slumber and I get out of bed trying not to wake him up. Straining my sleep caressed eyes in the dark I grope my way towards the door and hit my toe on the leg of the side table. The pain jolts me fully awake and without throwing another glance at Mr. S I scamper out of the room, straight into the kitchen and towards the refrigerator.
