Properly Regarded as an Economy

7 August, 2016
Posted in: Mr. Waffle, Princess

I asked the Princess to make me mint biscuits and she kindly consented. “We need peppermint essence,” she said. It was not available in our local shops. “We could make it,” I said. We looked it up on the internet. All we needed was mint (of which we had a superabundance) and vodka (of which we had none).

We rang Mr. Waffle who was at the library with the boys and asked him to get some vodka for us. He came back with a €20 bottle. In a moment of rashness, we used it all. We now have a litre of peppermint essence in preparation.

All I can say is, I’m looking forward to these biscuits. It you know me and you need peppermint essence, contact me, I can do you a great deal.

    Ah, but is it really peppermint or one of the other, much nicer, mints? Don’t fancy mint biscuits, to be honest – just give me the mint-infused vodka.
