Our culinary whizz makes what he calls Halloween Cake by anointing a rectangular slab of fruit cake with blue curaçao to make it look like some alien creature with blue-green blood has dripped all over it.
Anyhow, the De Kuyper brand of this liqueur has fancy plastic gadget instead of a cork or a screw cap, and it left our whizz emitting lots of bad language, at great peril to the ozone layer, when it just turned and turned and refused to come off.
The whizz had to attack it with a knife, pliers and a skewer. He ended up totally destroying the fancy cap so that he could replace it with . . . a cork. Maybe if De Kuyper had settled for this simple solution, the ozone layer could have been protected from all that bad language.
