Yellow # 5 and the Bakersfield Beckoning

Ambergis composes a small part of the whale vomit that floats to the top of the sea.

Perfume merchants use it as a fixative; It allows a scent to last much longer. Although it's been replaced by synthetics - some high end perfumes still use ambergris.

Bobby wanted to throw up. It wasn't from worry or stress, even though his wife told him she didn't love him anymore and was running off with Darrin. That throw up already happened.

Yellow #5 is a petroleum based food dye that is used to make foods appear more fresh and flavorful. If Yellow #5 was a person it would be like Darrin.

The musky fragrance breezed in from the North. A subtle bouquet with unyielding foundation. Was it a wispy beckoning from the long dead Basques of Bakersfield?

Darrin put on a tie and went to work. Bobby skipped work and tied one on. Yellow #5 is a component of lipstick. Lipstick is a component of Mel. Mel was a component of Bobby, now she's a component of Darrin.

.

Yellow # 5 is an azo dye. Azo dyes are synthetic and not solvent.

When Mel found this out she left Darrin.

Red 40 is also an azo dye.

Seventeen days later Mel met a young man named Chuck whose hair was unkept.

The Wolf tattoo on Chuck's forearm contained Red 40, but Mel couldn't

see it at the time. She would see it later.

Ambergris is the solidifying base used in Ambre Nuit by Dior.

Ambre Nuit by Dior is a component of Monica on certain evenings.

Zunica is a Basque restaurant in Bakersfield.

Bobby now works at Zunica.

He cooks squid in it's own ink.

Tonight Monica will be dining at Zunica.
