Hungry teenagers:
Spurn gourmet, demand junk food.
I weep as I cook.
Keep your head down low
Get outside quick and breathe deep
Dad’s frying chillies
Would it count towards
My five a day, if I ate
Vegetarians?
Dishwasher broken!
Husband! Disembowel it!
Mend it or wash up!
[2 hours later]
Bother Drat Bother
Dishwasher completely dead
Guests come tomorrow
Exotic cuisine
Without right ingredients:
Optimistic Dad
The scent of orange,
Cherries and almond essence
Recall Gran’s kitchen
Tell me to do it
To cook just like your mother
And I’ll add hemlock

Sounds like a bad day. Just remember all wine used in the sauce has to be sampled first. After the second bottle you’ll be surprised how good junk food tastes when all else fails. 😀
This was a prompt on Writers’ Soapbox. It was great fun. It’s all true of course, especially my Dad trying exotic food without the right ingredients and my grandmother’s lovely cooking. (I’ll remember the tip about the wine of course!)
