Quite the Conceited Cook

In the larger view I'm the better cook. Some folks can hardly boil water. They'll take a recipe by the hand and lead it straight to slaughter! Yet I don't need a recipe. My hands and mind are strong. If you let me taste your dish you'll see I'll capture it like a song. A dash of this and a pinch of that are really all that I need. When I put on my pretend chef's hat for my know-how you will plead! So don't even try to imitate me. I'm better than Betty Crocker. I put to shame Chef Boyardee or maybe I'm off my rocker! for contest "I Spit Fire" November 26,2013

This is a lot of fun and hopefully does well in the contest. It's cool writing about conceit...not as annoying as real life.

I'm sure that soon there'll likely be, a meal of splendid delight. Hope that you'll not have to cook, too late into the night. Can smell the dishes in my mind, in this I am not fibbing; because your family will soon be, filled with a deep thanksgiving.
