Words of wisdom Milton and so true. The wanderer has returned, got back at 04.00 this morning, don't know if I'm coming or going. Hope you're well. Tom

When made inside a microwave A sauce will never thicken You try to use a browning pan It tastes like rubber chicken It’s like a pizza from a box Or Chinese food not made in woks A verse is best when simmered like a stew
