Are You Hungry?

Of late, TBG has not been hungry.  There's no telling from day to day what will work.  Today, cold milk (and sometimes the accompanying Cheerios) was what he craved.  Yesterday, it was flautas from our Mexican restaurant.  He keeps sending me to Dairy Queen for a small chocolate milkshake.  His taste buds never get the message from his brain that says I love this! Drink me!  Instead, two spoonsful in his nose wrinkles in disgust.

It's too bad I don't like chocolate... or maybe that's a good thing.  I've been well fed by eating what tastes terrible after two bites.  It makes meal planning very simple.

I'm thinking about this because, in bringing out the toys for HoneyBunny and The IVth's visit this week, I came across Junior Kindergarten Recipes For Your Holiday Entertainment.  Created by Little Cuter's class of 5 and 6 year olds in the late 1980's, it's full of gems.  As I ease back into the swing of things, I'm taking a shortcut and sharing the best of them with you.

I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

Lamb Chops

Get infinity lamp chops at Treasure Island.  Put them in a glass rectangle pan and put them in the top oven.  Cook them for 2 hours at 400 degrees. Take them out and put mint jelly on them with a knife.  Say Grace.

Spinach

Get it at Treasure Island.  (There are lots of Treasure Islands because of the pirates and their treasure.  That's why they call them Treasure Islands.)  Take it home and put it in the refrigerator.  When you're ready to cook it, put it in the top oven.  Make the oven hot, but not infinity hot, and cook it for 1 hour.  Eat it with broccoli and cheddar cheese.  After dinner, brush your teeth and go to bed.

Christopher's family obviously shops at the upscale grocery store (Treasure Island).
