The following are a couple of recipes given to me yesterday by my 6-year-old nephew, John, to add to my files. These are exactly in John's own words, just as he wrote them. I giggle every time I read them and thought they were just too great not to share:
Cornstarch Putty:
Ingredients:
3 Tbls. cornstarch
2 Tbls. cold water
Directions:
Mix cornstarch and cold water together. This makes a very strange mixture for squishing and feeling.
Finger Jello
Ingredients:
3 envelopes unflavored gelatin
1/2 C water
1 1/2 C fruit juice saved from canned fruit.
In small pan, sprinkle gelatin over water. Heat on low until dissolved. Stir in fruit juice. Pour into a small, flat pan. Regrigerate. When it's hard, cut into pieces. Pick up and eat. Don't forget to eat the canned fruit or your mom will be mad.
Bacon And Watermelon Rind Appetizers:
Ingredients:
1 pound bacon
Sweet, pickled watermelon rind
Directions:
Cut the bacon in half. Cook bacon about half done so it's still limp. Wrap each piece of bacon around a piece of rind and stick with a tooth pick. Put under broiler until it's done, turning once. Serve. Warn people that they're hot so they don't get their fingers burned!
