Since the Food Marriage Blog is about being married, having fun, loving life, and loving food, I thought I would share something that is related to Food AND Marriage! This recipe was passed down to me from my mom…she actually received the recipe from a good friend when she got married! It’s a recipe for a great marriage!
Marriage Stew
Ingredients:
- 2 Consenting Persons
- 2 Cups Love
- 2 Pinches Understanding
- 2 Teaspoons Patience
- 2 Cans Trust
- 2 Well Rounded Measure Sex
- Plenty of Honest Friendship
Directions:
If you have the ingredients on hand, lets get started on our happy chore of putting together a wholesome, hearty marriage stew.
First, combine the 2 Consenting Persons with the 2 cups of Love in an adequate, comfortable mixing area. Next, blend in the Understanding and Patience, and beat lightly with a spoon made of laughter until the mixture is smooth and fluffy. Now add the 2 cans of Trust and pour the mixture into the Casserole of Life and place over very low heat to simmer.
This is also the time to add tears, dreams, touching, remembering, or any other spices you feel will make your stew more exciting. As the mixture is simmering, saute the sex in tenderness and perhaps a little wine on special occasions. Add this to the main casserole until the desired strength is reached.
While the stew is cooking, you may like to sprinkle in a little singing, dancing, playing or praying – you be the judge. Cook to taste, garnish with a kiss or two and serve with the Honest Friendship.
My mom actually had this recipe displayed on each of the tables at my bridal shower and gave each guest a copy in little bags along with their favors. Now, I keep a copy right in my kitchen by all my cookbooks! Feel free to share this recipe with the bride-to-be in your life or use at the next bridal shower you are planning.
