Funny Name: Frumious Edition
This recipe from Two Hundred Tasty Treats (Christian Women's Fellowship, Southside Christian Church, Muncie, IN, ca. 1960) sounds like the kind of dinner a mother Jabberwock makes to warn her kids about assholes brandishing vorpal swords.

I thought the same thing when I saw the name of the recipe.
ReplyDeleteGreat minds, right?
DeleteI totally don’t mean to be uncool, but that’s just an Americanized version of galumpkis. It’s a polish word for stuffed cabbage rolls. Otherwise, keep up the good work. This shit is a favorite of mine.

I meant site, not shit. Apparently I type that a lot ...
DeleteI imagined that was the case, but I didn't try to figure out what it might be. Thanks for the explanation.
DeleteMy pleasure :-)

Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!”
Frumious Bandersnatches like to be left alone anyway, so they hope you do shun them.
