.
He let the omelette get cold on his plate. He ate a few vegetables and looked at his watch.
That's when I knew it was over. Once, he used to love it when I cooked for him.
But as my mother always said, you can't reheat an omelette.

Well, that was cheerful.
And believe or not, this is on topic:

Good one, Zephirine. I like this game: you sort of carry on reading after the end.
Ah, Kevin Kline with his Frrranch accente! Underrated movie. In fact, this clip is a 2-minute story involving food...
Tony, yes: 50 word stories are endlessly fascinating:)
The Frrranch accente is great, but you have to listen very carefully if you want to find out why it's on topic.
Mother's mostly right - which is why siblings fighting for the ears and nose of the rabbit blancmange should be allowed to do so.
Even if it rankles.
I NEVER got the ears!
What Tony said.
(mimi: I am the youngest. I always got the best bits. I miss those days).
Aha, Offie, I thought you just meant because it was a scene about her trying to rekindle a relationship, but now I realise you have been much more subtil in your frranch way... it's in the song by Les Negresses Vertes.
I looked it up on a helpfully bilngual site of song-lyrics and got this:
Ce qu'elle t'a prepare ta mere (what she made for you, your mother)
Une omelette avec les yeux de (An omelette with the eyes of)
ton pere (your father)
Sorry about the missing accents.
Gruesome little image, that.
The eyes of mon pere? Zeph - I thought I was searching for the ears and tail of my childhood pink blancmange lapin.
Mon lapin rose.
Oh que que que pour le missing accent! I don't think I want to know what your gruesome image is.
Bingo.
I could have made it more obvious, but the song itself is not on youtube, hence the roundabout way.
Some songs are NOT on youtube?!? Shocking, non?
But some are. Thank dog for the Australians and their frankness:

Interesting, non?
