Monday:
Now home from honeymoon and settled in our new home. It's fun to
cook for Tim. Today I made an angel food cake and the recipe said,
"beat 12 eggs separately." Well, I didn't have enough bowls to do
that, so I had to borrow 12 bowls to beat the eggs in.The cake
turned out fine though.
Tuesday:
We wanted a fruit salad for supper. The recipe said, "serve without
dressing." So I didn't dress. But Tim happened to bring a friend
home for supper that night. They both looked so startled when I
served them, I think it was the salad.
Wednesday:
I decided to serve rice and found a recipe which said, "wash
thoroughly before steaming the rice." So I heated some water and
took a bath before steaming the rice. Sounded kinda silly in the
middle of the day. I can't say it improved the rice anyhow.
Thursday:
Today Tim asked for salad again. I tried a new recipe. It said,
prepare ingredients, then toss on a bed of lettuce one hour before
serving." I hunted all over the place for a garden and when I got
one, I tossed my salad into the bed of lettuce and stood over there
for over one hour so the dog would not take it. Tim came over and
asked if I felt all right. I wonder why? He must be stressed at
work, I'll try and be supportive.
Friday:
Today I found an easy recipe for cookies. It said, "put all
ingredients in a bowl and beat it." Beat it I did, to my mum's
place. There must have been something wrong with the recipe,
because when I came back home again, it looked the same as whe! n I
left it.
Saturday:
Tim went shopping today and brought home a chicken. He asked me to
dress it for Sunday. I'm sure I don't know how hens dress for
Sunday. I never noticed back on the farm, but I found an old doll
dress and it's little cute shoes. I thought the hen looked really
cute. When Tim saw it, he started counting to ten. Either he was
really stressed because of his work, or he wanted the chicken to
dance. When I asked him what was wrong he started crying and
shouting out "why me ? why me ?".It has to be his job.
