ABC of Jiffy Cookery

If you're working by day
And cooking by night,
Or your chores you would keep
Both easy and light,

If you like to eat well
But you cook in a hurry,
If you want to relax
Without bother or worry,

If you yearn to play bridge,
Or the weather's too hot;
Or you simply don't want
To bend over a pot,

You'll find that this book
With occasional rhyme,
Will make cooking pleasant,
And help you save time!
