One fine day, Chef John<br />
got a letter from the <strong>Prime</strong><br />
<strong>Minister</strong>.<br />
Dear Chef John,<br />
I am going to visit<br />
you on Sunday<br />
night at six o’clock<br />
in the evening.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>
“The <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>!”<br />
screeched Chef John. And he<br />
shook and shivered and<br />
quaked and quivered from his<br />
head down to his feet! And he<br />
stammered and stuttered and<br />
mumbled and muttered,<br />
“What do <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>s like?<br />
What do I give a <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong><br />
to eat?”
When Chef John stopped<br />
shaking, he looked up <strong>Prime</strong><br />
<strong>Minister</strong>s on the internet and<br />
saw…<br />
Durian Cakes are<br />
the <strong>Prime</strong><br />
<strong>Minister</strong>’s<br />
favourite food. You<br />
should bake a<br />
durian cake and<br />
give it to the<br />
<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>.
Chef John prepared all<br />
the ingredients to bake the<br />
durian cakes. “I can’t have a<br />
hungry <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong> in my<br />
house!” exclaimed Chef John. He<br />
had to bake more durian cakes<br />
so that the <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong><br />
wouldn’t be hungry.<br />
However, the next day, he<br />
was shocked when he saw<br />
another letter from the <strong>Prime</strong><br />
<strong>Minister</strong>.
Dear Chef John,<br />
My children, nieces<br />
and nephews are<br />
coming to your house<br />
on Sunday too.<br />
P.S. There are ten<br />
children.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>
“Ten children!” screeched<br />
Chef John. And he shook and<br />
shivered and quaked and<br />
quivered from his head down to<br />
his feet! And he stammered<br />
and stuttered and mumbled<br />
and muttered, “What do <strong>Prime</strong><br />
<strong>Minister</strong>’s child or nephew or<br />
niece like? What do I give a<br />
<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>’s child or nephew<br />
or niece to eat?”<br />
When Chef John stopped<br />
shaking, he looked up <strong>Prime</strong><br />
<strong>Minister</strong>’s children on the<br />
internet and saw…
When Chef John stopped<br />
shaking, he looked up <strong>Prime</strong><br />
<strong>Minister</strong>’s children on the<br />
internet and saw…<br />
<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>’s<br />
children like<br />
chicken rice and<br />
pizzas.
Chef John prepared all<br />
the ingredients to cook chicken<br />
rice and pizzas. “I can’t have<br />
hungry children in my house!”<br />
exclaimed Chef John. He had to<br />
cook more chicken rice and<br />
pizzas so that the <strong>Prime</strong><br />
<strong>Minister</strong>’s children, nieces or<br />
nephews wouldn’t be hungry.
The next day, Chef John<br />
got another letter from the<br />
<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>.<br />
Dear Chef John,<br />
My cats are coming to<br />
your house on Sunday<br />
too.<br />
P.S. I have twenty.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>
“Twenty cats!” screeched<br />
Chef John. . And he shook and<br />
shivered and quaked and<br />
quivered from his head down to<br />
his feet! And he stammered<br />
and stuttered and mumbled<br />
and muttered, “What do <strong>Prime</strong><br />
<strong>Minister</strong>’s cats like? What do I<br />
give a <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>’s cats to<br />
eat?”
When Chef John stopped<br />
shaking, he looked up <strong>Prime</strong><br />
<strong>Minister</strong>’s cats on the internet<br />
and saw…<br />
<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>’s<br />
cats like<br />
chocolate fish<br />
with ice cream.
So, Chef John prepared<br />
all the ingredients to make<br />
chocolate fish with ice cream. “I<br />
can’t have hungry cats in my<br />
house!” exclaimed Chef John. He<br />
had to cook more chocolate<br />
fishes with ice cream so that<br />
the <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>’s cats<br />
wouldn’t be hungry.
The next day, Chef John<br />
got another letter from the<br />
<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>. “Come on!”<br />
screamed Chef John, “Who else<br />
is coming now!?” But the letter<br />
said…<br />
Dear Chef John,<br />
I can’t go to your<br />
house on Sunday.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>
“But I have already<br />
prepared everything!” shouted<br />
Chef John. So, Chef John sent a<br />
letter to the <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>.<br />
Dear <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>,<br />
I am having free food at<br />
my house on Sunday. You<br />
can send starving people to<br />
my house.<br />
P.s. Children and cats are<br />
OK.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Chef John
The next day, Chef John<br />
arose to noises outside his<br />
house. When he looked out his<br />
window, and coming up his path<br />
he saw…Hundreds of people,<br />
hundreds of children and<br />
hundreds and hundreds of cats!
And he shook and<br />
shivered and quaked and<br />
quivered from his head down to<br />
his feet! And he stammered<br />
and stuttered and mumbled<br />
and muttered, “With this<br />
amount of people, children and<br />
cats, will there be enough for all<br />
to eat?”<br />
<strong>For</strong>tunately, there was food<br />
for everyone. And everyone said,<br />
“Thank you, thank you, Chef<br />
John. That was food fit for the<br />
<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>!”
