B.S. and Recipe's

Howdy! Have a recipe here from our resident youngster - the sweet, beautiful 4Martini!! *applause*

There once was a lass named Four Martini,
Who went to Nashville clad in a bikini,
She cooked for the stars,
She made great lemon bars,
And a hell of a stuffed zucchini!

zucchini....hmm...oops, sorry, minds in the gutter again....

Basil Shrimp with Feta and Orzo

Sounds yummy! I love shrimp! Anyway, and here's the funny of the day:

A man and his wife are dining at a table in a plush restaurant, and the husband keeps staring at a drunken lady swigging her gin as she sits alone at a nearby table.

The wife asks, "Do you know her?"

"Yes," sighs the husband. "She's my ex-wife. She took to drinking right after we divorced seven years ago, and I hear she hasn't been sober since."

My goodness!" says the wife. "Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?"

hee hee!! hugs and gropes!!
