Cook Like A Chimp
It's still February so short month shot blogs, or something like that, seems my memories short as well.

I was just thinking about all the recipe books available as well as those shared online and had an idea. Actually the idea came from reading "Banana Bread" in the Newsfeed, which linked to a nice poem I enjoyed. But I started thinking, maybe Andre could write a recipe book, "Cook Like A Chimp" or something similar.

I have a few recipes I could share with Andre, one from my days as a bachelor and people didn't think I could cook. At one pot luck, I made a seafood salad, my version, and it was a big hit; everyone asked where I purchased it. When I insisted I made it, they just kind of nodded, "Yeah, sure you did". So, the next pot luck I decided to try a bit of humor and baked a carrot cake.

Yes, I bought a bunch of carrots from the farmer's market because they still had the tops on them. I washed them well and lined the bottom of the cake pan with fresh carrots, poured some yellow cake mix batter over them, and baked as directed. Behold, a carrot cake. Hey, it was funny. They were just lucky I didn't buy hot peppers and make a spice cake!

But, I digress; Andre's recipe book, a collection of crazy recipes.
