Dear Mrs. Romney, Thank you for the wonderful recipe for Welsh Skillet Cakes. They were delicious. In fact, I’m eating one right now. As I type, crumbs are crumbling (as crumbs are wont to do) gently into the crevices of my keyboard, but I don’t really care because my taste buds are screaming with delight. I know we’ve disagreed some in the past—you think Mitt would make a great president and I think he’d just be awesome—but that’s no reason we can’t see eye to eye on culinary matters. Perhaps we could start some kind of exchange. I don’t cook much, but I make a mean grilled cheese (it’s a family recipe also!) and I always add just the right amount of milk to my Coco Puffs. Plus I know Mitt is a total sucker for those goody goody Dairy Queens that are all over Iowa. You probably get pretty sick of it after a while, and let’s face it: That’s a lot of ice cream. I also think it’s really cool that you post on a blog, even if you do have to share it with your five sons. Do you think Hugo Chavez’s wife posts recipes on her blog? Wait, don’t look that up, because I can tell you the answer is no. And if she did, they’d be in Spanish, which, last time I checked, was most certainly not our national language. Okay, apparently ONE of THE CRUMBS WENt into my SHIft key and now My CAPitALIZation is messed up. But I don’t regret it one bit. ANYWAYS I JUST WANTED TO REItterate what I SAID EArlIER. THANKs for the RECIpe and I hope this GOES ON THE Five brothers BLOg. Supportively, Tim MurphyP.S. Keep on reading for a photo essay of the first-ever “Campaign 2008 Cooking Spectacular.“
