Sunday Dinner

Yesterday we packed up the ice chest and took dinner to Grandma & Grandpa TwoChas (Grandma & Grandpa TwoHours, in Russglish). Last month, Grandpa TwoChas misnegotiated a ladder to the peril of his knee, had surgery, and then fell down the stairs with his crutches. We seem to be collecting gimpy Grandpas. Anyway, we went down to see them and Dandy cooked dinner. Here he is, to tell you how to do it.
