There’s a sick man on my sofa today, sitting with a throw over his lap, slightly feverish and delirious. He’s watching the food channel while he sniffles every five seconds.
-Wow, this woman just made an amazing shepherd’s pie out of a lampshade!
-What?
-Yeah, she cooked it in there and just removed it when it was done.
-She made a pie in a lampshade?
-Huh?
-You said she made a pie in a lampshade.
-No, no, it was lamb shank. That the stuff you use in osso bucco.
-I thought osso bucco was veal?
-It is.
I left the living room when he switched the tv to the Showcase Diva channel where they were playing a movie called: Make mine Chartreuse…
