Hangovers and what to do with them...the perfect gift for every
occasion! Hangovers and what to do with them...the perfect gift for
every occasion! The morning after - the drilling headache, the
waves of nausea, the paranoia, the guilt, the shame - yes, it's the
dreaded HANGOVER. We have all been there. But while most of us are
familiar with the general misery, less well known are the nuances
of the hungover state. According to P.G. Wodehouse there are six
different types of hangover that can bring the high-spirited
reveller of the previous night to their knees in the morning. They
are: The Broken Compass, The Sewing Machine, The Comet, The Atomic,
The Cement Mixer and The Gremlin Boogie. Each of these has very
different and specific characteristics, and the treatments for each
are by necessity varied. At last, we give you The Hungover
Cookbook, a self-help manual that helps the morning after drinker
to identify the nature of their hangover and tailor the treatment
accordingly, with recipes and remedies that precisely suit the
sufferer's state of mind - and body. With comforting and
restorative recipes [s1] including: huevos rancheros (Mexican fried
eggs); devilled kidneys on toast; kedgeree; hot bloody mary;
special mustard & cheese mash with sausages; blue cheese on
toast with pears and pickle; lemon and demerara sugar pancakes;
knickerbocker glory with refresher sweets, and, of course,
inevitably, the perfect bacon sarnie. This beautifully produced
book does not promise the reader 'a cure' but it does offer some
fun, and some good food, on the road to recovery. For those of a
ginger disposition, it will offer a soothing experience, not just a
list of ingredients, and transforms dealing with a hangover into a
subtle, multi-faceted art rather than merely chucking a 'full
English' at it. Milton Crawford Milton Crawford was born somewhere
north of the Zambezi and west of the Rift valley in a small town in
the middle of Africa. He has travelled the world in search of good
liquor and in an attempt to outrun the hangovers that seem to
follow him wherever he goes. He is an author and journalist, and in
keeping with the most honourable traditions of the writing
profession, a drinker of distinction. His previous books have been
published under a more sober alias.
