It has been quite a while since we gave the ol' World Wide Recipes
Groan-O-Meter a decent workout. This one is courtesy of reader Ann
Ahlswede:
A very lovely young lady smote a young man. Unfortunately she did not
return the feeling. In desperation he went and visited a group of
witches searching for a love potion. They informed him that they no
longer provided such an item. It was highly unethical to administer a
potion to someone without her permission. They did have an alternate
solution. They sold him a bottle of small white pellets. He was to
bury one in her yard every night at midnight for a month.
He returned to the witches six weeks later, excited and thankful. He
and the young lady were to wed in a month. The witch told him,
"Nothin' says lovin' like something from a coven, and pills buried say
it best."

Yesterday's recipe for Thai pickled carrots made me realize that we
haven't done an Asian theme in ages, so this week the theme is
"Totally Thai."
Here is an exotic treatment for what seems to be everybody's favorite
finger food. You can cook these on the grill or in the oven, as I
have here.
Thai Chicken Wings
1 lb (450 g) chicken wings, cut into individual sections
1/4 cup (60 ml) vegetable oil
2 Tbs (30 ml) oyster sauce*
2 Tbs (30 ml) lemon juice
2 Tbs (30 ml0) finely chopped garlic
2 Tbs (30 ml) soy sauce
1 tsp (5 ml) freshly ground pepper
1 tsp (5 ml) ground ginger
1 tsp (5 ml) sugar
Cayenne pepper to taste
Chopped cilantro (coriander) for garnish
*Available in finer supermarkets and Asian specialty shops.
Combine all ingredients except the cilantro in a bowl and toss to
thoroughly combine the ingredients and coat the chicken wings.
Refrigerate for 2 to 24 hours. Place on a baking sheet and bake in a
preheated 400F (200C) oven for 25 to 30 minutes, turning after 15
minutes and basting with the marinade. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
Serves 4 to 6.
