Now home from honeymoon and settled in
our new home. It's fun to cook for Dan.
Today I made angel food cake. The
recipe said, "Beat 12 eggs separately." The
neighbors were nice enough to loan me some extra bowls"
Dan wanted fruit salad for dinner.
The recipe said, "Serve without dressing."
So I didn't dress.
What a surprise when Dan brought
a friend home for dinner.
"Wash thoroughly
before steaming the rice."
It seemed kinda silly but I
took a bath. I can't say it improved the rice any.
Today Dan asked for salad again.
I tried a new recipe.
It said, "Prepare ingredients, then toss
on a bed of lettuce
one hour before serving."
Which is what led up to Dan asking me
why I was rolling around in the garden.
I found an easy recipe for cookies. It said, "Put all
ingredients in bowl and beat it."
There must have been something
wrong with this recipe. When I got back,
everything was the same as when I left.
Dan did the shopping today and brought
home a chicken. He asked me to dress
it for Sunday. (oh boy)
For some reason Dan keeps counting to ten.
Dan's folks came to dinner.
I wanted to serve roast but
all I could find was hamburger.
Suddenly I had a flash of
genius. I put the hamburger in the
oven and set the controls for
roast. It still came out like hamburger,
much to my disappointment.
This has been a very exciting
week. I am eager for tomorrow to come
so I can try out a new
recipe on Dan. If we could just get a bigger oven,
I would like to
surprise him with "Chocolate Moose."
