Here’s an idea that we’ve probably thought too much about, considering how nonsensical it is and how impossible it would be to implement.
EFFECT:
While cooking breakfast one morning for your previously overnight guest, you claim to have the best remedy for a hungover morning of liquor breath mixed with regret (which is perfect because that’s exactly what both of you have right now). You heat up a frying pan, throw some butter in, crack some eggs, maybe some pepper, so far so good. However, then you sneeze right into the pan.
“Oops, that darn pepper,” you say. “Can you hand me that napkin?”
Your confused and slightly grossed out partner hands you a napkin.
You wipe your nose and toss it into the pan along with the eggs.
“Bear with me here,” you say “This is going to be so delicious.”
If they haven’t left yet, you should probably be concerned.
You then ask for some dirt from your potted plants, some mayonnaise, crow’s foot, eye of newt, and a used condom, perhaps from the night before, “Amazing source of protein” you mutter under your breath. Toss them all in the pan and fry em up. Swirl this concoction like a witch would their cauldron.
You ask them for one final item to fetch, then you cover up your vile creation with a lid to let it really stew. Five minutes later, if your partner is still there, you lift up the lid of the pan to reveal a perfectly normal, wholesome omelette, containing none of the elements you have placed in it just moments ago.
METHOD:
Alright, this is where this really falls flat. You need to build a holdout in the back of your stove top so that you can hot-swap two pans while your partner is turned away gathering your last ingredient. Sorry, but not sorry. You know you love this.
