OJ French Toast
I still don’t have the answer
To a question asked
So long ago
Why do you buy milk, eggs and bread
When someone mentions snow

Does this sinfully sweet
Breakfast fare
Make us become a little manic
If we don’t get the ingredients
Do we all begin to panic

Do the slices of bread
With their cinnamon swirl
Remind you of riding a sled

Or the soft golden butter
Melting over the top
Remind you of warm days ahead

Do the fluffy white flakes
Falling down from the sky
Remind you of powdered confection

Or the syrup that’s oozing
Dripping over the sides
Remind you of sweet perfection

I want to know the simple truth
About this French Toast story
I’m pretty sure it’s not just snow
That gives it all its glory

 

Here’s the original story that asked the burning question: What Is It About Snow & French Toast?

img_3485Hi there, remember me?  I’m Gandolph (the gray).  My human named me that.  I’m sitting up here, in the snow, waiting for lunch 🙂

img_3493Finally!  OK, I hope no one noticed I took more than my share.  Darn, there’s that human behind the camera.  Looks like she caught me, again….

Ouch!  Poked my nose!! Can’t they buy shelled peanuts??!!  You who, human, no more shells, please!

OK, last one!  Om nom nom.  That is until I jump off this wall and go get more!  Till next time..

Love Gandolph the Gray (Squirrel)  🙂

Photographer’s note:  For those who don’t know Gandolph, hubby named him that.  He’s my buddy and will actually listen to me when I tell him it’s ok to get a peanut.  I love my backyard and all the critters that come with it 🙂

Fingers touch, electric sparks fly

Lips quiver, with anticipation

Bodies tremble with desire

A longing for love, entwined,

Your heart, and mine, as one
