MONDAY: It's fun to cook for Tom. Today I made angel food cake. The
recipe said beat 12 eggs separately. The neighbors were nice enough to loan
me some extra bowls.
TUESDAY: Tom wanted fruit salad for supper. The recipe said serve
without dressing. So I didn't dress. What a surprise when Tom brought a
friend home for supper.
WEDNESDAY: A good day for rice. The recipe said wash thoroughly
before steaming the rice. It seemed kind of silly but I took a bath anyway.
I can't say it improved the rice any.
THURSDAY: Today Tom asked for salad again. I tried a new recipe. It
said prepare ingredients, lay on a bed of lettuce one hour before serving.
Tom asked me why I was rolling around in the garden.
FRIDAY: I found an easy recipe for cookies. It said put the ingredients in
a 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.
SATURDAY: Tom did the shopping today and brought home a chicken. He
asked me to dress it for Sunday (oh boy). For some reason Tom keeps counting
to ten.
SUNDAY: Tom's folks came to dinner. I wanted to serve roast but all I
had 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 hamburger,
much
to my disappointment.
GOOD NIGHT DEAR DIARY. This has been a very exciting week. I am eager
for tomorrow to come so I can try out a new recipe on Tom. If I can talk Tom
into buying a bigger oven, I would like to surprise him with
chocolate moose.
