Tonight for dinner, the Dillworths are featuring Prawn Stuffed Apples.
In a horrifying attempt that would have most guests running for their lives, Mary and Jeff Dillworth took out their favorite recipe, given to Mary by her aunt Gladys— a woman who thought she was the Julia Child of Park Slope.
It featured boiled prawns clutching stuffed olives, while perched on red apples, as if hugging a toilet and vomiting a white and creamy unidentifiable substance.
When Mary and Jeff’s guests, Linda and Tom arrived, they instantly smelled death in the air, and somehow sensed this supper could be their last.
Mary was actually quite fond of Linda and Tom, and wanted to make something extra special for her birthday. It was a time when lawless recipe sharing was allowed to pollute Good Housekeeping Magazine, and subsequently, the homes of millions of unsuspecting Americans.
Linda and Tom did make it out alive after a few gags and heaves. The next day Linda made the rounds and warned others that Mary was in a bizarre cooking cult, and for months friends and neighbors stayed away.
What’s not pictured? Dessert. Rumour has it, it was octopus gelato!
