Today's food funnies were sent in by Ivey Williams of Pensacola,
Florida.
Woman's Wine Quote: "Men are like fine wine. They all start out like
grapes, and it's our job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark
until they mature into something with which you'd like to have dinner
with."
Men's Counter-Quote: "Women are like fine wine. They all start out
fresh, fruity and intoxicating to the mind and then turn full-bodied
with age until they go all sour and vinegary and give you a headache."
To cap off our week of Brazilian recipes we have what may be one of
the easiest recipes I have ever published. It tastes great too.
Pao de Mel (Honey Bread)
3 cups (750 ml) all-purpose flour
1 cup (250 ml) sugar
3 Tbs (45 ml) cocoa powder
1 cup (250 ml) honey
1/4 tsp (1 ml) ground cloves
1/4 tsp (1 ml) ground nutmeg
3 Tbs (45 ml) butter or margarine
1 cup (250 ml) milk
1 tsp (5 ml) baking powder
Your favorite chocolate or sugar frosting
Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir until well
combined. Pour into a greased 9 x 12 inch (22 x 30 cm) baking pan and
bake in a preheated 325F (160C) oven for about 20 minutes, or until
done (test with a toothpick). When cool, cut into 2 inch (5 cm)
squares and glaze with a chocolate or sugar frosting. Makes one 9 x
12 inch (22 x 30 cm) cake.
