So after our long, dangerous over night trip to conquer new islands,
old Angel Jen was ready for dinner. We whipped up some pork chops,
macaroni salad and, best of all, cottage cheese and, super best of
all, the king of vegetables, bok choy. For you young hill people, bok
choy may be an unknown treat. It's a tall, leafy green vegetable that
grows in a clump of stalks like celery. But it's sweet and green and
white with none of the stringy things inside that celery has. It is a
member of the Chinese cabbage family of vegetables. Celery is a member
of the cardboard family.
After slowly savoring her bok choy with its vinegar and brown sugar
dressing, Angel Jen's ever active mind cast about for a dessert to top
off the meal.
I poured my dessert into its usual glass, added tonic water, ice and
lime and watched the wheels of her mind spin. I knew something great
was going to come.
Sure enough. Angel Jen invented a new dessert! She sent me to our
starboard fore locker where she knew the ingredients lay. "Chips
Ahoy!" she cried. "Marshmallows!"
Taking two chocolate chip cookies and a marshmallow, she made a
dessert sandwich that adds the nutrition of cookie dough to the
delight of her previous invention, the smasher (marshmallow smashed
into chocolate chips). Angel Jen is one amazing dessert chef!
The only thing is that the intense cookie rush wiped out her head and
she can't think of a name for it. She needs you guys to come up with a
name for it, so get to work! Put your little fuzzy heads together and
come up with a name for the new dessert delight.
Angel Jen says she's going to try grilling a half a marshmallow onto a
chips ahoy, too. Man, her mind never stops!
So keep your little minds a working, too, kids. It might be your one
ticket into the second grade.
