Vacillating for a time between broiled lobster and porterhouse steak with mushrooms, he cut the matter short by taking both, and buttressed the main structure of the meal with side dishes of banana fritters and griddle-cakes. With a happy afterthought he recalled the fleeting waiter and ordered him to fetch a cocktail as an appetizer.
Invalids and gourmets may be indulged with boiled ham, broiled over live coals. Slice very thin, lay for half a minute upon a shovel of glowing fresh coals, take up in a very hot dish, butter liberally, dust with pepper and serve very hot. To frizzle ham slice as thin as possible in tiny bits, and toss the bits till curly-crisp in blazing hot butter. Excellent as an appetizer or to raise a thirst.
I made my way to a little island above in quest of driftwood. Before I had found the wood I chanced upon another patch of delicious wild strawberries, and took an appetizer of them out of hand. Presently I picked up a yellow birch stick the size of my arm. The wood was decayed, but the bark was perfect. I broke it in two, punched out the rotten wood, and had the bark intact.

Washington says he'll have some fine fried ham for us in a little while." "And here are the eggs to go with it," spoke Jack. "Have you found a hen house?" asked Mr. Henderson in some wonder.
So, from just below the elbow he stripped the bone clean to the articulation of the wrist-joint, where his teeth met and my good right hand became his for an appetizer.

He pursued the gushing stump of my wrist.
Watts did not consider that arising at four, and cooking and sweeping and tidying up the cabin, and quarreling with the Bishop as "a petty old bundle of botheration" and storming around at the children all by sun-up this was not work at all. It was merely an appetizer. The children were aroused by her this morning with more severity than usual.
Farther along was a steaming plum-pudding, overhead on a swinging tray a dozen bottles of wine, by the captain's elbow a decanter of yellow fluid, and before each man's plate a couple of glasses of different size. "We'll start off with an appetizer, gentlemen," said the host, as he passed the decanter to his neighbor. "Here is some of the best Dutch courage ever distilled; try it."
Peckerwood Pup is at this moment, you see, chewing the strings out of my shoes as an appetizer for her supper. How could I eat sweetbreads and truffle, which I know Owen has already ordered, when I knew that more than a hundred small children were at home crying for bread?" "Ann, what is it that makes you so perfectly radiantly beautiful in that faded linen smock and old corduroy skirt?
The meanest of the rowers felt the caprices of a potentate, the itch to imitate the opulent for a night that they might console themselves with its memory in future days of hunger; and they asked for oysters from Lucrinus, which an occasional ship brought packed in amphoræ with sea water as a delicacy for the great merchants of Saguntum, or the oxygarum, salted fishmilt, prepared with vinegar and spices as an appetizer for which the patricians of Rome paid a great price.
"If the Company'd only get some cherry bark an' whiskey" "At dinner," said Mrs Carewe, stroking her chin "we had some sour-kraut she eat right pe'rtly of that kinder seemed lak a appetizer to her. She mixed it with biled cabbage an' et right pe'rtly of it." "An' some mo' buttermilk it kinder cools my stomach," whined Miss Samantha. "An' hog-jowl, an' corn-bread anything else Maw?"
