HOLIDAY IN • THE; KITC,HEN.• .
I'm going . to punch aright. on the
nose the next person, be itman,
Woman,child, or nice old lady
whose bones 'are aS brittle as
soda crackers, who asks me, "Did
you have a nice Easter holiday?”
Some school teachers have a
nice Easter : holiday, and good
luck to them,. • But English teach -
err are not among. there°
English teachers have. the same
sort of holiday a bus . driver would
have if he were given :a week
off and told he was ' to drive a
bus from ' 'Halifax , to Vancouver
in thenext seven days. '.
When the holidays began; 1 had
examination papers to mark which
represented a total of about 480
student writing hours. (They could
have produced the works of • Shak-
espeare in the same time.) This,
in turn, means that I' have about
100hours of marking 'time.
No . complaints. It's part of the
job. But things were a little more
complicated' this year. The ' wo-
men of the house.. came down with
'flu, just as the, "holidays" : be-
gan.'
the, result was that,, instead:. of
sitting quietly in my study, and
having countless cups • of tea" and
coffee, innumerable ' beers and
sandwiches brought .me, . to keep
me going, I. found myself trotting,
up and,: down stairs about six
hours . of each day, bearing up
tempting little ' things. on trays,
bearing down dirty dishes,' While.
my pillars of papers sat and
gathered dust. •'
Results of turning the old man
loose with . the grub for. • :a ' few,
days was interesting. My wife has
almost decided to become,a per-
manent invalid. My kids realize.
that their father- has another bril-
liant, unsuspected dimension.•.
The Old Lady was feeling hor-
rible, with the flu, but there didn't
•
seemmuch wrong with her ap-
petite. She gained' about eight
pounds. Of course, :she's 'not used
to my lunches; Instead `of the.
soup -and -sandwich routine she's
accustomedto they consisted of
something like this: glass of sher-
ry; grilled sausage . with butter -
fried mushrooms and cheese om-
elette; tossed salad; blueberry pie
and ice cream; coffee; brandy;,
cherry -centred chocolates;
The kids were a' bit shaken by
some of my casseroles. Perhaps
the • most successful was the las-
agna. Basis,a can of lasagna ---
egg noodles; in: tomato and meat
sauce: Simmer in oven for ten
minutes. Addlayer of mushrooms,
layer of •strong cheese, layer of
thin -sliced salami, layer of onion
rings, layer of mild ..cheese. Bake
in : oven. Sprinkle • with paprika,
parsley, chives, cinnamon, nut-
meg, wild oats, or , anything else
that will sprinkle. Serve with hot,.
crusty rolls, and• stand . back.
The, reason there are no great
women chefs? They've no image•,
ination., ; My wife hacks up some
lettuce,: tomato . and : celery, and
calls it a salad. If she's feeling
particularly ' exotic, : she might
throw in some sliced green pep -

ics, , contained great' chunks of
