A combination of lovely ingredients
not as heavy as other cakes so it’ll
get easier on your tum after dinner
egg whites with sugar ensure a
light and fluffy sponge – nice to eat with strawberries

Listen….
can you hear it?
as the morning sun
pops its head above the horizon
the rise and fall of the musical local wildlife
discussing the day
can be heard in every green space in the land
news of the morning
new chicks in the nest
meaning more than one food stop
for Mr Sparrow and Mr Blackbird

I
when i was made
i promised a lot
zesty , light and zingy
fresh tasting lemon
cloudlike meringue
and a buttery biscuit base
II
Each spoonful
supposedly
taking you off
to the greens of the med
where my fruit grew
and blue skies shone
III
Initial reactions –
Brilliant
till about the
third mouthful
when delightful flavour
became a toasty mess
IV
Perhaps
eating the biscuit
before the lemon was
a bad idea
zingy toasty biscuit
needs more meringue

Crafty little easter bunnies
having had us give up the sweet stuff
over 8 weeks of spring
carry their baskets of candied heaven
out amongst the town
leaving special treats for the kiddies
(and their mums and dads) in the house or garden
toffees and bonbons to make anyone smile, inside
eggs of extra special chocolate, and of course
some special cake for an easter tea

Here you go –
You’ve been waiting
for that time when the
bubbles around the spuds
disappear
The water goes diving,
Normally the spuds
would be heading for the oven
but not today
Numbers of spuds
become a single thing
with the help of the masher
and a bit of butter
addition’s a plenty
sausages see fried onions, (or onion gravy)
chops get apple (or Mint)
depending on the meat
and Fish? Always parsley sauce.

Raise the standard comes the call
when i was little it meant a flag
but now its a symbol or a sign
to cooks and chefs, one and all
to improve ingredients in their bag
so empty plates they are returned
and stuff on plates are ate with wine
instead of being thrown in incinerator, burned

Below the depths, in a very cold place
out of hewn stone
there’s a spot where aficionados of
their favourite tipple
like to store their reds, whites and fizzy stuff
every weekend, decending the steps for
something to go with the Lamb, Chicken, Steak or Fish

Watch as i let off steam, as the leaves bathe and change colour….
take five as the colours in my cup swirl about,
and take in the flavours from a distant land….
you can learn quite a bit from my pyramid pal.
sit back in a comfy chair and ease your worries away
from a brew picked in Assam, Darjeeling or another exotic location –
you will appreciate it more if you do.
and if you wish – take a biscuit for a paddle.

Pizza delivery is a hazardous thing
Road users don’t expect delivery at over 50 Mph
Out of nowhere – you see the bike
Navigating lanes like its a rodeo derby
Taking on the four wheelers – like his life depended on it
Of course, it doesn’t – but arriving hot gets the driver a tip
#Fowc #integral #Food
In the middle of the dining room table
Nut roast , Goose, Chicken, Lamb, Beef or Turkey
The centrepiece of the Christmas Lunch
Every vegetable imaginable surrounding it
Gravy boats, Sauces, Napkins and the special silver makes it a
Right royal feast
And for afters – if there’s room – a
Lovely pudding….but enjoy your main course first!
