Polly, after some secret irritation, smiled and was content. And the fat woman's omelettes were things to remember. She stood upon the steps as he came towards the house, and smiled at him richly. "Caught many?" she asked. "Got an idea," said Mr. Polly. "Would it put you out very much if I went off for a day or two for a bit of a holiday? There won't be much doing now until Thursday."
The bourgeois of Boulogne have commonly soup and bouilli at noon, and a roast, with a sallad, for supper; and at all their meals there is a dessert of fruit. This indeed is the practice all over France. On meagre days they eat fish, omelettes, fried beans, fricassees of eggs and onions, and burnt cream.
At first the old peasant hung back from accepting the proffered gold coin, though at last he took it, remarking: "I will admit that I am poor, and yet it seems a crime to accept money from an American." Half an hour later their host returned, bringing two hot omelettes, dark bread, potatoes and the inevitable pot of coffee.
In Lydgate's "Story of Thebes," a sort of sequel to the "Canterbury Tales," the pilgrims invite the poet to join the supper-table, where there were these tasty omelettes: moile, made of marrow and grated bread, and haggis, which is supposed to be identical with the Scottish dish so called. Lydgate, who belonged to the monastery of Bury St.
It is now time to go, not to chapel for Catte's has no chapel but to parish Church, and Stoke goes very devoutly to St. Peter's, where we shall find him again, later in the day, in another mood.

73. =How to make Omelettes.= There is no great difficulty in making omelettes, and as they may be expeditiously prepared and served they are a convenient resource when an extra dish is required at short notice; care should be taken to beat the eggs only until they are light, to put the omelette into a well heated and buttered pan, and never to turn it in the pan, as this flattens and toughens it; if the pan be large, and only three or four eggs be used in making the omelette, the pan should be tipped and held by the handle so that the eggs will cook in a small space upon one side of it; instead of spreading all over it, and becoming too dry in the process of cooking.
Poussette was present at the evening meal, rather pale and subdued and pointing with the pride of a true chef to the omelettes which were his alone to make by special dispensation, and after supper Ringfield walked out to the great Fall, remaining till it was dark and late so late that he knew no one would pass that way. Then he knelt on a slab of rock and lifted up his voice in this wise:
And we shall take them do you think?" "We must. The attacking columns will be of great strength, and the attack will be preceded by a tremendous cannonade." "So we may expect great news in the next few days?" said Mrs. Wilders, eagerly. "More bloodshed!" added Mrs. Jones, with a deep sigh. "This terrible war!" "You can't make omelettes without breaking eggs," said Mr. Hobson, sententiously.
The saloon tent had been stripped of its sides, and had nothing left but its roof; so when we sat down to table we could look out over a noble panorama of mountain, sea and hazy valley. And sitting thus, the sun rose slowly up and suffused the picture with a world of rich coloring. Hot mutton chops, fried chicken, omelettes, fried potatoes and coffee all excellent. This was the bill of fare.
Quenu laughed at his brother's clumsiness in making omelettes, and at the serious fashion in which he prepared the soup-beef and vegetables. When the lamp was extinguished, and Florent lay in bed, he sometimes gave way to feelings of sadness. He longed to resume his legal studies, and strove to map out his duties in such wise as to secure time to follow the programme of the faculty.
