1 cup of love
1 tsp of humbleness
2 cups of courage
1 oz. selflessness
cook it up
fry it up
chop it up
add a lil' gravy
and boooo yowww--
forgiveness patty served
Smiles--gotta love that kiddo!

The placing of the "(15)" is rather misleading as it infers you are the 15-year old - you could be a teenager in the pic.
Your son must have read it somewhere - I have seen a longer version of the recipe in British magazines.

This made my day! My son is 13 years old and I love my conversations with him.
Your son is absolutely charming.
