Paris: Simply Irresistible Link Party - Café Français

Welcome to all who have come by way of my Dear Friend, Anita's blog,
at Castles Crowns & Cottages. If you're stopping by and not sure what is going on, I've joined in her Simply Irresistible Link Party!  It's a celebration to showcase and pay tribute to Paris, the "City of Lights." Be sure to hop on over to her page to view this years participants.

So, without further ado, Ladies & Gentlemen, I present to you:

Café Français, avec Kooky et Maximus

Hmmm...What am I going to eat? There are too many choices.

Here comes the waiter. Perhaps I should ask him what he recommends.

"Maximus!!! Is that you?"

"Bonjour, Kooky Chicken!"

"Maximus, I didn't know you worked here."

"Well, I don't JUST work here, Kooky...I OWN the place!"

"Wow, Maximus. I didn't know that! Perhaps you could tell me what to order then. I've never been here before."

"Don't you worry, Kooky. You don't need this menu, l'll order for you."

"Oh, Kooky! You are in for a REAL treat. This meal is going to be spectaculaire!"

 "I hope you have at least one hallow leg though, because it's easy to fill up on the bread here."

"I know a little trick that may help - a tap on the head, and your stomach will feel a bit lighter."

"Awe yes! That works everytime. Okay, you can take your seat again, Kooky. I'll be right back."

"Hallow legs?" I wonder what that Maximus is talking about?

Kooky is going to love this baguette!

Perhaps I should take a bite to make sure it's fresh, before serving.

Hmmm...I'm not sure I got a big enough bite to make a fair assessment.

Oh, Oui! Très Magnifique!

Perhaps my eyes aren't seeing things correctly after the head tapping, but I think Maximus just took a bite of my bread!

"Maximus? Were you just eating that baguette?

"Oh Yes...I wanted to make sure it was fresh for you, Kooky!"

"Maximus! What kind of operation are you running here?"

"Kooky, you should be grateful that I took the first bite. I can now assure you that the bread has not been poisoned."

"Poisoned??? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, MAXIMUS?"

"Kooky! Don't you know anything about history? Back in the day, they had specific people assigned to taste foods before it was served to royalty."

"If the food tasters died, then the food had been poisoned."

"Woah...Really? What would happen then, Maximus?"

"Well, if the food tasters died after eating the food, then it wouldn't be served to royalty."

"So are you saying that you're worried someone is trying to poison me, Maximus?"

"One can never be too safe, Kooky."

"Maximus...YOU are a TRUE friend! You would risk your life for ME?"

"I've got your back, Kooky!"

"I have to say, I'm quite touched that you care so much about me, Maximus."

"So, Maximus...how long does this process take?"

"You aren't trying to rush me, are you, Kooky?"

"I'm not trying to rush you Maximus, but I haven't eaten a morsel since last night and I'm STARVING!"

"And I'm a little concerned that you're going to eat my entire baguette before I have the chance to have one bite, Maximus."

"Kooky, don't take this wrong...but are you feeling okay? You've been talking about somebody trying to poison you for the last 10 minutes. I've eaten half of your baguette, trying to convince you that there is NOTHING wrong with it."

"I'm a little concerned about you, Kooky. You seem a bit paranoid. Did someone knock you on the head or something?"

"Ummm...YES! Someone did INFACT knock me on my head! M-A-X-I-M-U-S!!!"

"Oh dear, Kooky! I've only read about this condition in books. I must have hit a nerve in your brain when I tapped your head on the table earlier."

"On rare occassions, it can cause severe delusions. The only way to fully recooperate is to rest for 3 days and abstain from solid foods."

"I am so sorry if I caused you any pain, Kooky. You should get home as soon as possible and take care of yourself."

That poor Kooky. I hope he feels better soon.

I must say...THIS is one fine tasting baguette!

What a shame that Kooky didn't get to try any...

Maybe next time...

The End
