stuff even a shlemazel can make

*Shlemazel (Yiddish, pronounced: shlah-MAH-zull)

“When a shlemazel winds a clock, it stops; when he kills a chicken, it walks; when he sells umbrellas, the sun comes out; when he manufactures shrouds, people stop dying.” Even the goyim know that mazel tov means good luck. A shle-”mazel” is without “luck.” A born loser.

Whether you were born with no luck for matters of the kitchen, whether you are a spoiled prince or princess who never boiled an egg, whether you are a career guy or girl who has never had time to learn, or whether you are a simply complete idiot- not to worry. Meal and a Spiel to the rescue. Stuff Even A Shlemazel Can Make is for you!!
