Thanks to reader Marlene Steinberg of Marina del Rey, California for
this food funny:
After a long, bumpy flight, our passengers were glad to finally land.
They disembarked, and the other attendants and I checked for items
left behind. In a seat pocket, I found a bag of home-made cookies
with a note saying "Much love, Mom." Quickly, I gave the bag to our
gate agent in hopes it would be reunited with its owner.
In few minutes, this announcement came over the public-address system
in the concourse: "Would the passenger who lost his cookies on Flight
502, please return to the gate?"

This is the favorite drink of the lovely but unfortunate Miss Frappe.
Ginger Frappe
1 cup (250 ml) sugar
6 whole cloves
4 oz (125 g) crystallized ginger, chopped (about 3/4 cup, 180 ml)
1 liter bottle vodka
Combine all ingredients in a clean jar with a lid, reserving the
bottle. Store tightly sealed in a cool, dark place for 3 months.
Strain to remove the solids and return the liquid to the bottle.
Allow to age for at least 1 month before serving. Serve chilled, over
ice, or straight up. Makes about 4 cups (1 L).
