- A recently-married guy comes home one night to find his wife has prepared
- her first-ever roast dinner. He tucks in with gusto, but finds a small piece
- of paper in his gravy. Carefully unfloding it he reads:
- "Slowly, slowly, cape St Vincent sank beneath the glowing sea."
-
- "What's this?" he asks his wife.
-
- She replies "The recipe said 'if the gravy is too pale, add a little
- Browning.'"
