Recipe for a Broken Heart

Pre-heat the oven

To 180 degrees Celsius

Cream together the memories

And the feelings

Keep beating until they turn white

Add the regrets

Whisk friskily

Then gently fold in the flour

Turn into a lightly greased tin

Bake in the oven

For however long it takes

For

Your

Heart

To

Rise

Again

If in doubt

Prick with a toothpick

To see if it comes out

Clean

For more delicate hearts

Gently push the centre

And wait for it to

Spring back

Leave for 30 minutes on a cooling rack

Then share generously with your loved ones
