Blonde Cookbook!

It's fun to cook for Tom. Today I made angel food cake. The recipe
said beat 12 eggs separately. The neighbours were nice enough to loan
me some extra bowls.

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!

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.

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...

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.

Tom did the shopping today and brought home a chicken. He asked me to
dress it for Sunday. I don't have any clothes that fit it, and for
some reason Tom keeps counting to ten.

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
a chocolate moose.
