"Elephant Stew"
(How to Feed A Crowd)

1 Elephant (medium)
Brown Gravy (Watkins Beef Soup & Gravy Base)
Watkins Sea Salt & Watkins Pepper

One Onion...Four Ripe Olives
Two Rabbits (optional)

Cut elephant into small bite sized pieces. This
should take only about two months. Add enough
gravy to cover. Cook over kerosene fire for about
four weeks at 465 degrees. Makes about 3,800
servings. To extend it add rabbits, but do this only
if necessary as most people do not like to find hare
in their stew.

"The Blonde Cook Book"

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

TUESDAY:
Bob wanted fruit salad for supper. The recipe said serve
without dressing. So I didn't dress. What a surprise when
Bob brought a friend home for supper.

WEDNESDAY:
A good day for rice. The recipe said wash thoroughly
before steaming the rice. It seemed kind of silly but I
took a bath. I can't say it improved the rice any.

THURSDAY:
Today Bob asked for salad again. I tried a new recipe. It
said prepare ingredients, then toss on a bed of lettuce
one hour before serving. Which is what led up to Bob
asking me why I was rolling around in the garden.

FRIDAY:
I found an easy recipe for cookies. It said put all
ingredients in 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.

SATURDAY:
Bob did the shopping today and brought home a chicken.
He asked me to dress it for Sunday (oh boy). For some
reason Bob keeps counting to ten before talking.

SUNDAY:
Bob's folks came to dinner. I wanted to serve roast. All I
could find 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!!!
