F-12, 358 Fifth Ave., New York 1 *Shope-relaining features protected by U S Pal No 2267S9S wife, "and I decided to make deviled egg sandwiches. We only had two eggs in the house, and I couldn't remember the right procedure for hard-boiling them. I know it sounds silly — but I just couldn't figure whether the eggs went into cold water and heated with it, or whether I should dump them into boiling water and turn the gas off. So that's what I did. They turned out just lovely — if you wanted them for breakfast. Just a mess of soft-boiled business. But I chopped some onion into them and added mustard and mayonnaise and pickle, and we ate them that way. I like to think they were just — well, unusual." "Nothing," Craig says, "could have been done to those eggs that you didn't do." Then there was the tie episode. It was Christmas and Alexis just had to be domestic and buy her husband the traditional Christmas cravat. She finally found one — a blue and white checked job, and something inside told her it was just what Craig would adore. She had it wrapped glamorously and toted it home. Then she sneaked a look at Craig's tie-rack to check on her tietaste, and right in front of her hung the identical four-in-hand, just where Craig had put it the night before. Alexis didn't tell him about that joker until some time in March. Then came the session with the Silex. Craig's a coffee fiend, and likes to brew his own. But Alexis and Fanno (pal Frances Rafferty) , non-caffeinists, decided to make a potful one night to surprise Craig. They concocted the potion in the master's own glass pot. Then they trooped into the living room and executed a few -pirouettes and entrechats to "The Swan Lake" while the stuff brewed. There was a sudden rumble, the sound of Craig's hurried footsteps, and a muffled shriek! Alexis tore into the kitchen. "It looked like Vesuvius in action," she says. "Coffee was erupting over the whole kitchen. Craig turned off the gas and just looked at me philosophically. How did / know you're supposed to turn the fire off under the glass thing? We had a pitcher of milk instead." "By every law of nature," Craig mutters, "that glass pot should have blown up in our faces!" The apartment walls shake slightly. "Don't get excited," Alexis says, "that's just Fanno. She lives a couple of blocks away and we can hear her door slam like that every time she leaves the house. Hi-octane Fanno!" "Ffffffffffffanno!" says Craig, making it sound like the auto races. "She's got pure Vitamin B-l coursing through her veins, instead of plain old blood," says Alexis. "She married Johnny Horton, our best man, and Craig promised to keep an eye on her while Johnny's overseas." "I'm getting psychopathic," Craig says. "Fanno calls up and says she wants to see a movie. I relay the message to Alexis. Then I have to referee while the two of them fight about what picture and what time and what they'll wear. I'm always the middleman. It's a twenty-four hour yatta-ta yatta-ta. OLKfl DOT fllllTCH UPS M iAe A/etuelt Qadusut 9 dee.!
