HOME COOKIN* ? BRIAN & ANGELA ~ AN 8 4 2 RHYMING SONNET !

ANGELA & BRIAN



 

DURING LOCKDOWN ~ With Pubs & Restaurants Closed Folk have had to rely on *Home Cookin* and there have been lots of complaints ~ when compared to the Local Caff ! This Poem deals with the biggest gripes ~ OK !Ive bin doin* most of the most of the CHEFFIN* cos ANGELA is busy PHYSIOTHERRAPIN* !  As a Lecturer in Food Science Im a Precise Cook & ANGELA is a Spice Cook so we have NO Complaints !  The JAZZ Classic focuses on the excellence of *Home Cookin* in Southern US & we can vouch for that !  The visual shiws a *Full English* with some of the imperfections mentioned in the Poem !  Burned Toast & Bangers - Hard Fried Eggs - Too many Beans & Cold Coffee ! Does that ring a BELL ? Such food NEVER served in UK Motorway Caffs of course ~ only Haute Cuisine !  Love to All ~ Dine well this WEEKEND ~ Angela & Brian & Smokey ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’™

 

BURNED TOAST ~ The thing I hate the most - MUM

Scrape it in the Bin - YES and then start agin !

Steak & Veg thats overcooked - we*ve noted

MUM cant bear to cook Steak rare - her Sprouts are always bloated !

Stale baguettes & Mashed Potato ~ LUMPY

We train our College Students - Never to serve those

Our Diners @ the College would be ~ GRUMPY

And our WINES all have - a Nose like a Garden Hose !

 

Cauliflower Cheese - that always full of Water

Roast Potatoes never Crisp - but always SOGGY

Never serve those to your Son or Daughter

Such *Pommes de Terre* are not fit for your DOGGY !

 

Bruised Bananas - turn out blackened - when you PEEL

And hard-fried Eggs - Just make me wanna SQUEEL !

 

Thanks for your visit comments please LOVE Angela & Brian ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’›

      It's tipping down here now. Dunno what Cowes is like now. It's proper rain too, not mucking about with drizzle.
      Hope that's not a dampener for ya!

      • ANGELA & BRIAN

        ANGELA HERE - Good Sabbath Uncle Steve ! The Cowes forecast for SUNDAY to THURSDAY next week ia SUNNY & MAX 17C (63F) but for an experienced Sailor like me - I can cope in a Gale & Rain. This makes Life better when you get out of the D*M* BOAT (JOKE ?). We sail ALBACORS which are unsinkable ! Have You & Fido ever been sailing ?

        Blessings & Joy for YOU & the BOY

          I've been cooking all my long life so this lockdown has never affected my eating habits.
          The biggest problem with that 'Full English' is that there is no Black Pudding.

            BRIAN HERE ~ GGOD MORNING UNCLE ANDY ~ Depends how far North you are ! Some people object to BP because it contains BLOOD ! What better FOOD ? They serve WHITE PUDDING (an oxymoron) South of BRUM ! It was meant to be a bad example (burnt toast etc) and SANS BP was one of the omissions as well as too many hash browns instead of Fried Bread ! Is TRUMP taking over ?

            Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
            Love Angela - Brian - Smokey ! ! !
