Cooking Blonde

"Camping Blonde"*

*Sally, a blonde, goes on her first camping trip.
Her husband, who was a Scout Leader, was
sick so she volunteered to take over for him
one weekend. She got everyone together and
assigned different duties to each scout.

Gabby was responsible for the food supplies,
Mike would be the cook this trip, Johnnie was
responsible for their maps and making up a time
schedule, Tim was to decide on their events, and
to fit them into Johnnie's schedule and Sally
would test all their equipment before setting out.

They arrived at Big Moose Mountain and everyone
was excited. They arrived right on schedule and
were getting ready for their first event - hiking up
the mountain. But first, they wanted to get
something to eat. So Sally asked Mike if he would
prepare the meal and, of course, Mike said he would.

About 10 minutes later he came back and told Sally,
"I can't make the supper. I can't light a fire with the matches you
brought."

Sally replied, "I don't understand! Those matches
should be perfectly fine. I tested them all just before we left."

"Cooking Blonde"*

*Mr. & Mrs. Smith have been back from their honeymoon
for two weeks when Mr. Smith comes home from work
and says that he has invited 4 of his friends from the
office home for dinner on Friday night. The wife is a bit
apprehensive and asks if she must cook a meal for the
four. The husband explains that there will be eight
coming because each will bring his wife.

Since this is there first party, the husband consoles her
by saying that all she has to do is get some Chinese
food in and perhaps she can bake a cake.

This sounds like a good idea, and they sit down and
decide what Chinese food to get.

Friday morning wife calls the office in tears. She explains
that the only cake recipe she has will only feed six.

Hubby says, "Why don't you just double the recipe?"
She decides that is a good idea.

At four, hubby gets another phone call -- this time quite frantic.

"I just can't do it," wifey weeps. "It's impossible."

"Now, now, what's the matter?"

"Well, their recipe calls for two eggs..."

"So, you use FOUR eggs. Don't you have them?"

"Yes -- then it needs 4 cups of flour."

"Well," hubby says rather testily, "you will have to
use 8 cups of flour --what is the problem?"

"It isn't the ingredients," wife sobs, "it says that the
cake must be baked at 350 degrees and I have
checked the oven, and I can't turn the heat up to 700 degrees!"
