A Little Bit Like Chop Suey

Tonight we ate Chinese take-out for dinner. We ordered the honey chicken, veggie lo mein and special fried rice. Well, it was mostly disappointing, and I guess we'll be heading back to South Garden on Sunset and 107 next time--definitely worth the slightly longer drive.

In the spirit of our humdrum nums, I present to you, dear reader, a sampling of authentic, Chinese recipes and supping protocol from a cook book published in 1964. My handsome man found this one in a thrift store about ten years ago and we have not tried even one of these very colorful recipes (we are lame).

So, best of luck to any brave souls out there, willing to try their hand at "barbecue sausages" or "Chinese hot dogs"!
