Goodbye, Jesus

.

Jesus left Dirt Candy over a year ago, but he was my sous chef and my friend, and part of him will always be a part of Dirt Candy. We have a handle that we use to open up the basement hatch which we all have to do about 100 times each day. It was always getting lost, so one night Jesus braided together this rope for the handle out of plastic wrap, just like a kid at summer camp making lanyards.

.

It wore out recently, and so I had to throw it away. It was the last thing that Jesus did that was still here. So from now on, while he’ll always be a part of Dirt Candy, it’ll only be in spirit.
