“Today I am making tomato aspic”
<\/p><\/blockquote>\n


<\/div>\n

Recipe seemed  simple enough..tomato juice, chopped onions, chopped celery,<\/p><\/div>\n

bay leaf, 2 cloves, bit of Worcester sauce, some weird stuff called gelatin<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

But there were many problems

-finding room in kitchen
-some ingredients missing\u2026actually most ingredients were missing..cloves, gelatin \u2026perhaps  celery<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

-pot on stove with bay leaf, tomato juice and Worcester sauce
-onions cut up\u2026tears on my glasses
-celery a little limp\u2026and few stalks\u2026will make do

problem..how to start the stove
problem\u2026gelatin too old\u2026like a decade or so
problem\u2026marjorie interfering\u2026thinks she
knows more about cooking than I do
problem\u2026finding Marjorie\u2019s purse with car keys

solution..just opened can of beer while Marjorie flees to store
for gelatin ,etc.

solution\u2026let marjorie take over but do it grudgingly so she
thinks i want to make the tomato aspic\u2026all I really want is to eat it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/div>\n
P.S. That stuff called gellatin is tricky like fast drying cement.<\/div>\n
Tomato aspic bowl is a bit messy because I had to pour the<\/div>\n
aspic from pot to bowl \u2026 and missed.   <\/div>\n
