Cookbook Page, 1950

I remember a short story that explained how millions of women dealt with the perpetually late-returning boyfriend/spouse by walking into the kitchen and calmly breaking a few eggs.

Which is nicely poetic so far as it goes, but then again there's all that cutlery. Who's for a few bars of "Thin Line Between Love and Hate"?
