remnants of a dream 2: the disaster cooks

mismatched ingredients
incompetent cooks
unannounced party
we need to prepare some food
a spur of the moment
not much chance to get ready
a spoiled phone call
a misunderstanding ensues
time for the party
but nobody picks up the food
we all wonder what's happened
until Dad comes home with the news
he's fired from his job
could no longer get back to the place
all because of an error in the task set to us
they bought food from somewhere else
and are enjoying themselves
the 18th birthday of my cousin
and we're uninvited
