An
Old Wooden Spoon
Last week, I
went down to Hungary to visit old Edith Neni. And, when I got there,
Old Edith Neni was chopping up onions. And, in her mouth was a very
old long wooden spoon. And, it was there for a very good reason.
Tears. Not tears of sorrow, nor tears of great joy, but, instead,
for cutting up onion tears.
Every time,
Old Edith Neni chops up an onion, she puts her very old long wooden
spoon in her mouth. This makes sure that cutting up onions is no
crying matter. And, it works every time. With an old wooden spoon in
your mouth you will not shed a tear whilst cutting your onions. In
fact, cutting up onions will be just like chopping up apples and
pears. Dry eyes and smiles.
And, there
is good news as well. This works with all wooden spoons. Old ones,
new ones, long ones, and short ones as well. So, next time you want
to cook a good Gulasch or make a good stew, put your old wooden spoon
in your mouth. You will be surprised. The only tears there will be
will be tears of great joy from your friends enjoying your cooking.
So, if you
have no wooden spoon, go out and buy one. And you, just like Old
Edith Neni, will enjoy cutting and chopping up onions.
Last week, I
went down to Hungary and made a discovery. Old wooden spoons and all
other wooden spoons, too, stop you from crying whilst cutting your
onions.
