::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FOOD FUNNY :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Thanks to reader Shelia for this food funny:
A young man was walking along the beach barefooted, when he hit
something really hard with his toe. He bent down to examine it closer
& found out it was bottle. He rubbed the bottle & out popped a
beautiful genie, who said, "You have been granted 3 wishes." The
young man said, "I would like to have 40 million dollars." The genie
handed him a deposit slip from a Swiss bank with $40 million dollars
in the account. "What is your second wish, Master?" the genie asked.
"I would like to have a red Cadillac convertible." Poof - there was
the car parked beside him. "For my third wish," the young man
replied, "I would like to be irresistible to women." And he turned
into a box of chocolates.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::: TODAY'S RECIPE ::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Although not generally a compulsive fellow, Basil St. Jacques can't
dream of starting a day without a shirred egg or two. Rather than
give a list of ingredients for this recipe, I'll just describe the
procedure and you can make as many of these as you want.
Shirred Eggs
Grease ramekins or small, individual baking dishes with butter. Place
a slice of tomato (optional) or Canadian bacon (optional) in the
ramekins, top with an egg, and season with salt and pepper. Top with
chopped fresh herbs (optional), a couple of drops of sherry (optional)
and a small dot of butter. Place in a water bath and bake in a
preheated 350F (180C) oven for 6 to 10 minutes, depending on the
ramekins and the degree of doneness you prefer.
