愚人笑话|Joke: Wise Cooking Advice

This weekend, I discovered a cooking tip I haven't seen listed in any cookbooks.
While you are preparing the food, and after the guests have arrived, you contrive1 to fill the house up with smoke, preferably enough to get at least two smoke detectors2 going.
Then you go rushing about the house, opening all the windows, setting up fans, and generally doing everything short of calling the fire department.
Let the guests sit for about 1/2 hour at 50 degrees and serve the food.
By this point, you have established expectations in your guests' minds that you can't fail to exceed!
