This looks completely different in person! For some reason I'm in child art mode!! |
Can you tell I have a great idea for a kids book brewing! |

I love my kids more!
Plus they do hundreds of things for me
I found this poem from 2007, I wrote it at 51,
I thought I'd share....Except for this one line
"Once in a while I manage a spurt
Bustle around, somewhat alert"
Bustle around, somewhat alert"
which is no longer applicable...
The rest still holds true!!
Let me know if you can relate!

Culinary Liberation
I used to be a merry kitchen Bitch
Whipped up anything, without a glitch
A gourmet meal, a dinner for eight
Precisely timed, nothing was late
The kitchen was clean, pretty table was set
I’d chatter with company, it was never a fret
Times of soup in the crock every week
Baking galore is now quite bleak
Culinary abundance is finally gone
Enthusiasm for cooking is more of a yawn
Once in a while I manage a spurt
Bustle around, somewhat alert
Then in an instant it becomes mundane
When Supper hour approaches, I feel disdain
I rather go out, pass on the work
It’s a redundant chore I’d rather shirk
I’ve done my duty for my family and friend
Surely I’ve earned a liberty transcend
Into my writing, computer, and art
It’s these passions now that capture my heart
A potato, or salad, sandwich or tea
Things without mold from the fridge that I see
I eat random times, when the urge strikes
And damn it, i'll eat more to my likes
Smoked oysters and cheese placed on a bun
Sole, and seafood, from which the kids run
Finally it’s my turn to make my own choice
For years I made food my family would voice
Although I’ll admit at times I’ll succumb
After all I live with the guilt of a MUM!

Did you ever love to cook?
How do you feel about it now?
