Yankee noodle flopped a bowl.
The bowl got to be noodles hat.
O hum to the assembled a song:`
Heartily:`"Come let us drink about."
Sip tropical rums, brandy liqueurs,
and no dash of whiskey! Nots Ever!
Cocktails cost $9 -to- $12:00 bucks!

Debbs - I'm not totally sure that I did...
Just Cathy - yes, I think this is truly spectacular. I really like the fact that the "creamed eggs" are soup and hard boiled eggs.
1) Eat something really good that has fresh mushrooms in it.
2) Arrange some Chinese fried noodles attractively on a plate. (Make sure you use a pretty placemat too!)
3) Position head over plate.
4) Stick finger down throat.
You're welcome. :-)
And with a "Melon Ball Cocktail?"
What Jeanette said.
bobbot - These definitely predate the health food movement.
Jeanette - that is definitely an easy to follow recipe!
Will Someone Feed The Cat - It's only real if you make it.
spotted - I'd need a good solid cocktail before diving in myself.
mamoore - now don't go messin' with my attempts to be authentic!
O'Really - I'm just trying to broaden your horizons.
RavingBits - You are not gonna con me into making this one. Not this time. No sir.
Sally - I do offer suppositories to address the nausea with the aperitifs.
Out of the kitchen I run.
I am laughing so hard the tears are pouring here....

Owl - I'm magical.
Mission - I'm really just getting warmed up. It's a shame that we only have one day a week dedicated to food.
littlewillie - I aim to please.
SWEEEET!
Rated!
Steve - I usually offer those in suppository form with the appetizers.
squirrel - I knew it! Just let me know I'm happy to make regular menu recommendations. I'm just here to help!
GeeBee - you have to get your roughage somewhere.
LadyMiko - you are a woman of taste.
Also, D-Tone wanted your phone number but he's always after the white prize.
And I actually LIKED the result. And I'll MAKE IT AGAIN. It's the ultimate comfort food.
See what you've done, Surly? I hope you're happy now.
