In a kingdom somewhere in asia, there was a sultan who had a son as heir to his throne. The handsome prince fell in love with an ordinary girl. Of course the sultan was furious about it. So he gave a test to the girl. He said that if she can cook 12 kinds of dishes from a single "pipit" (a really small local bird), he will let her marry the prince. But if not, she will die...Can you finish the story?

OK, so here's what happened in the story. It went like this. ...
That night the girl had a dream. In her dream, a fairy gave her a silver comb. And that's it! The next day she went to the sultan. The sultan asked her where the 12 dishes are.. The girl answered, "If your highness can make 12 silver plates out of this silver comb (w/c is really so little), then I will start cooking the 12 dishes from the single pipit." The sultan was dumbstruck. How can he make 12 silver plates out of a small silver comb? So he spared the girl's life. But the story did not end there. He gave another test. The test I will give you in my next question... Pls follow me there. Thanks for trying, everyone!

The girl took the challange. The sultan sat down on the table and noded. After half an hour the girl opened the door and carried in the dish. The bird was simply backed. The sultan has just tasted the dish when the girl took it and left the chamber. After few minutes she returned with the same dish on her hands.
"What's that?" said the sultan strictly.
"Your second dish sir" she answered. That repeated 12 times. At the end the sultan stood up and said:
"You failed"
"No. I succeed. Every time I brought out the bird I put a diferent spice on it. That's the magic in cooking. Every spice makes a new dish."
The sultan admited that's true and permited the wedding.
The End

The prince was handsome, but he had bad teeth. This ordinary girl just could not stand the thought of having to kiss someone with bad teeth, and besides, she loved another. She felt that she would rather die than to have to marry that rot mouth prince and forever give up her wonderful ordinary guy. She cooked the pipit to a wonderful golden brown and made ONE wonderful dish, which she ate and enjoyed immensely. When the sultan returned, she served to him a platter of the pipit's bones. The sultan was so angry that he gave himself a heart attack. With the sultan dead and the prince laid up with a toothache, there was no one to stop her from leaving, so she ran away and married her ordinary guy and they lived happily ever after.

So she cooked up all the meals, and for each one a new
person was called into taste this, and at the end of it because
she had given to someone else and of herself.
The prince came and ate of each dish, and at the end of this
he knew that he loved her, and he challenged the Sultan to
a duel, he won and she was given to him in marriage.
He told her he loved her, and swept her away on his white
stallion, with its large white wings flapping in the wind.
He took her to his home, and loved her they had 3 children
and he bought her some little black cats with white spots on
them, within a year she was pregnant, and her own little
princess was born.
Because she had stayed true in heart and spirit to the Prince
her knight on the white charger, he loved her forever, and they
lived happily ever after in his home.
Love is like that, if you love someone you will accept them as
they are.
The Sultan accepted his loss, and sent her 12 horses to complement the Princes own supply of horses, and to
this day they ride them everyday and think of how much
he had loved her.
Because he loved her, he could not let anyone kill her.

because she was a kind and sweet girl the woman of the sultan harem helped her and made the dinner for her and let the sultan think she had cook it. The prince of course knew all of this and helped himself because he knew he was going to marry her. It was his destiny..

there replaced right into a sweet lady. She replaced right into a bridesmaid in bridezilla's wedding ceremony. the marriage celebration and bride were evil. They were nasty to the sweet lady and no remember how outstanding she replaced into, they dealt with her badly. sometime, she had to bypass to the bachelorette celebration. all of them left out her until eventually eventually the coolest-looking prince got here to talk w/her. all of them were jealous of this. The prince took her away in his Corvette and that all of them lived thankfully ever after.
