Subject: Mrs JimJr: the Anti-Chef
Every time I do a joke on Mrs JimJr's "cooking" (if y'all will pardon the
expression)
I get a ton of mail accusing me of gross exaggeration. OK... consider these
facts:
Granted, Mrs JimJr is not the best cook in Glenelg,
but we're the only family I know with Mylanta on tap.
Her idea of a "cold boiled ham" is a ham boiled in cold water.
She once tried to make a sponge cake,
but claimed the sponges kept soaking up all the icing.
Now I'm now saying that she makes heavy pancakes,
but we have the only bow-legged stove in Glenelg.
When she first got her microwave, I thought our meals would be a lot quicker.
She insists however on letting the thing pre-heat first.
Last nite I complained of having beef stew again for dinner.
Mrs JimJr became highly irate and wanted to know why I hadn't said anything on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday.
I asked once why I couldn't have a "surprise" for dinner.
She complied by soaking off all the labels on the cans and frozen food packages.
I sat down the other evening to a meal obviously burnt.
Mrs JimJr said, "Now before you go and get all upset, this wasn't my fault at all. They had a fire at the carry-out."
