She did it on purpose, I know it!
Put those gross little things in the stew
Tried to disguise them as potatoes
Leaving me no choice, but to spew
Carrots and peas, flying everywhere
Beef, shredded, more than before
Those torturous turnips, defeated
I threw the rest of them on the floor!
Partially based on a true story. I never ate my mother-in-law’s stew again lol

Poems about the silliest of things always make me smile. Keep looking for these times. Even when all things appear lost, that moment of inspiration will always Turnip.

Ha ha ha. My mother-in-law (a retired head nurse) did not believe that people have food allergies, so she put milk and butter in the squash and told me it didn’t have any. I was instantly sick, and we had to leave – she never did that again.

We actually became the best of friends, and at the end of her life, she began to suspect she had food allergies – life, lol. Have to love it. She never poisoned me again.
