put my first cookbook together.
Culinary Delights for the Single Man.
with my phone i
have taken pictures of all
of my creations.
each with a listing of ingredients
and the recipes
which i have used.
Chapter One
is Sandwiches.
the Peanut Butter and Jelly
Sandwich
is focused upon
on page one
with a full-two-page color photo,
not unlike
the Playboy centerfold
back in the day.
this is
followed by the ham sandwich,
the egg salad sandwich,
tuna sandwich,
the club sandwich, etc.
Chapter Two
is all about breakfast.
with crisp clean prose
i go through the descriptions
of the perfect bowl
of cereal, sometimes with
fruit added.
of course there's scrambled
eggs,
and waffles.
i do a deep dive on sausage
and bacon.
Pop Tarts
and Bagels are addressed as well.
Chapter Three is all about
dinner.
how easy it is to use the micro
wave
and stand at the kitchen
sink,
eating Kung Pao chicken
with chopsticks
from the little white boxes.
this chapter is mostly dedicated
to Door Dash,
and Pizza Deliveries.
Chapter Four is the midnight
snack,
which involves
cold chicken, picking pieces
off a three-day old
rotisserie chicken
with your fingers at midnight
while standing in
the cold light
of the refrigerator
in your underwear.
this is followed
by eating
a handful of Oreo cookies
with a glass of milk,
or sometimes crushing them
over a bowl of vanilla ice-cream
before going back to bed.
Chapter Five
is a listing of favorite condiments
and accessories,
hot sauce,
mayonnaise,
mustards, pickles,
potato chips,
ketchup, lettuce, onions,
hot peppers, etc.
Chapter Six
is all about indigestion
and what over the counter products
are best to get over it.
