End of Days
Beware brothers and sisters, friends and neighbors everywhere. The End is surely near – we are down to our last clove of garlic … although we do have an adequate supply of toilet paper.
A Most Righteous Dish
This recipe has been in my family for at least an hour now. I wouldn’t hesitate to serve it at the second coming … any subsequent comings, too.
Start off with one very dirty Martini, two might be excessive, but not outrageously so.
Prepare your quinoa with an adequate amount of chicken stock, a pinch or two of salt, zest of a lemon and juice from same lemon. I’m thinking a clove or two of garlic would be good, but this recipe hasn’t been in the family all that long and I did start off with a second Martini.
Dice up a couple Roma tomatoes, chop a couple sticks of fresh celery; use the most tender, tasty stems from the center of the stalk, and mix tomatoes and celery into the still hot, cooked quinoa.
Oh my gosh. Too good not to share.

Wish
The nameless little chicken was roughly thrust headfirst, upside down, into a silvery funnel. When her head abruptly poked through the narrow end, she frantically thought, “Was my wish to get to the other side really a good enough reason?” But then, as all physical sensation escaped and her spirit began ascending into a beautiful, very bright light, she wondered with heightened excitement, “Well now, what’s on the other side of that road?”
Snack
With ice in her voice, she said, “It’s the wrong knife, you dolt…and where’s the wine?
Calmly, deliberately, almost in a whisper, he replied, “You doubt the effectiveness of a very sharp boning knife?”
