=======================
 JW> Well I like spicy chocolate, as in cocoa-molasses-raisin-sweet
 JW> spice cookies and cakes. So I guess I'm a manly man after all even
 JW> if I do enjoy fruity cocktails.

Masters and Johnson point out that people are not all one or
the other, and good thing too, as if all men were 100% manly,
we'd have extincted ourselves long since. Even I have been known
to eat quiche.

 ML> I've become hostile to Puck over the years, as he, probably
 ML> Pierre's hero, gets sucked into many ventures and has his name
 ML> plastered on some dodgy products.
 JW> I just can't reconcile executive chef and master of Asian and
 JW> Mediterranean fusion with canned soups manufactured by Campbell's.

That's what the dollars are supposed to do - balance the equation.

 ML> Exfoliants. Ask Roslind.
 JW> Shows how much I know about that kind of stuff. There are six
 JW> grooming products in my bathroom, 187 in hers and I can only
 JW> identify eight of them.

I have three - two combs and a razor.

 ML> Now, cranberry juice booze drinks, those
 ML> are definitely girly.
 JW> If guys are going to try the following drink it will definitely need
 JW> a new name... like Red Vodka Fizz or Raspberry Buzz. Oh yeah, it
 JW> also needs a 600% increase in vodka.
 JW> Title: The Goddess

That's unutterably nasty. I guess that's how goddesses
can be?

Dame Edna's Aftermath Quiche
cat: leftovers
yield: 1

7 oz frozen short crust pastry
Assorted canapes and party leftovers in general
Chopped parsley
1/2 pt milk
2 lg eggs
Paprika
Pineapple chunks to garnish

"How sad it is, on the morning after a party, to
see all those tasty morsels and little canapes and
savories you've slaved over the day before, still
sitting there on their soggy Ritz crackers and jaded
Jacobs, nibbled or neglected in the morning light.
Aftermath Quiche is the answer - with the odd deviled
egg, sardine, and those lovely cubes of cheese,
salami, gherkin and pickled onion, it is quite
possible to make the most delicious quiche. And
quiches are so in, aren't they?"

I prepare my short crust case first by unfreezing it.
Then I flick in all those toothsome morsels and leftovers.
Keep an eye open for broken glass and cigarette butts and
garnish with a sprinkling of chopped parsley. Then make
the custard. Two eggs to one cup of milk. No vanilla,
please! Fold custard gently over the filled pastry and
garnish with a dash of paprika and pineapple chunks
(optional). Pop into a 350F oven. Cook for about 30 min
until your knife comes out clean. Serve hot or cold.
