In response to the prompt
I remember,
sitting by the oven door
watching the blue flames slowly
cook the fabulous fancies
in their individual tins
Flour, Butter and Sugar combining –
as the smell of desiccated coconut and chocolate
wondering in wisps up the nose
and slowly, the gloopy mix began to rise
and began to solidify
a tea time treat – for after
the shepherds pie and beans.
