A Wedding Recipe



In celebration of my brother in law's upcoming wedding I give you the following recipe for marital bliss:

A Wedding Recipe
Take two half pound packets of love, well sifted (be very careful to see that it is two packets, the whole success depends on this), same quantity of unselfishness, as much forbearance as you have on hand, half pound each of tact, cheerfulness' common sense, good health and energy. Mix well with good cooking, season moderately with good looks (not a necessity). Serve daintily and regularly with plenty of cash sauce. A very palatable dish.
