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?

With this wonderful snowstorm, and all the crazies out yesterday, I just had to reshare this poem from 2014 🙂

The Easter Bunny

Someone please explain to me
About the Easter Bunny
I’ve never seen a rabbit lay eggs
I find that rather funny

Yet every year it happens
They’re colorful and bright
A basket full of Easter eggs
That used to be just white

I tried myself to make the eggs
As pretty as can be
But somehow all the colors
Wound up all over me!

So, I’ll leave it to the bunny
As he goes his merry way
And hope he stops at your front door
This blessed Easter day.
