A Few of My Favorite Recipes
Omelette
- Combine three large eggs, a little water, milk, and pepper together.
- Using a tiny fork, beat until the eggs are fluffy.
- Pour into a hot skillet, add a handful of cheese, fold in half.
- Serves one.
Banana Bread
- Sift flour, salt, and baking powder together in a bowl.
- Beat eggs, oil, and sugar together in a separate bowl.
- Add sifted ingredients and a banana to the mixture, and beat well.
- Using one of the tiny forks from your collection, remove any lumps.
- Bake for 40 minutes, or until a tiny fork inserted in the center comes out clean.
Gin and Tonic Cocktail
- Pour 2 oz. gin and 5 oz. tonic water into a highball glass almost filled with chilled tiny forks.
- Stir well, as you explain to your wife that this is totally how people make gin and tonics and what’s with the weird tone.
- Garnish with a lime wedge.
“Mom’s” Pizza
- Purchase a pizza from a pizza restaurant.
- Using a tiny fork, slowly separate the pieces so that they are all exactly the same size.
- Quietly whisper words of encouragement to the tiny fork, working so hard when a knife or pizza cutter would do a better job. But that’s just not the way the world works, is it? Sometimes we don’t end up doing just exactly what we’d hoped.
- Begin to cry.
- Serves one.
