hope you’re hungry haiku
#winsh 40. Write 12 haiku about food. It’s ridiculously hard to write 12 haiku. Just saying.
globules of sugar
encrusted in more sugar
I love jelly beansfluffy crepes stuffed with
creamy homemade ricotta
ohman! icottilayers and layers
of light pastry dripping sweet
gods brought baklavamy snickerdoodles
tasty bricks could break your teeth
why the heck is that?tsatziki is hard
to spell but so delicious
a creamy heavenkale makes my bread green
I don’t know why I want green
bread- but it’s mmm good.fresh cream in blender
when whipped into a frenzy
splatters everywhereI adore coffee
that caffeinated liquid
I’m not a camel?marinated beef
succulent on my palate
that was a good cowstringy celery
tastes like green soggy cardboard
nope, I won’t eat itbest part of August
is juicy corn on the cob
typewriter chewingan apple a day
may keep the doctor away
and I like the crunch
LLO treated her parents to dinner at the local greek restaurant, clever called The Greek, last night. She wanted dessert, but we were as stuffed as the dolmades. Hence the baklava quest for today. I’m not so good with the papery pastry, but I’m really good with nuts and syrup. To celebrate her return from the land of grandparents, we had manicotti tonight- her second favorite food. We’ve been well fed in the land of sunshine. And tomorrow LLO and I have to go back to school. That kinda bites. Only two days to the weekend.

five seven and five once more
purple elephant
Good with handling nuts
Syrup as well, sounds dirty
This is a haiku
@Thatslifekid - i’m a dirty old woman and i’m tired of counting.
@godfatherofgreenbay - purple elephant indeed
@adamswomanback - used the mixer. i love my mixer. it’s better than…
@Bels_Kaylar - water transport. another responsibility. yikes.
@lanney - i thought i was clever myself for that one.
LOL, nope, you’re not a camel!!! LOL Camels don’t snort, do they?
ROLLING ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING SOOOO HARD!!!!
@olwd - but they do spit.
Yes, they do that. I like when you snort that much better!
Yummy haiku and baklava. YAY!
Baklava is great with ice cream. Have you ever tried that?
Two days to the weekend…yay!!! I am very excited about the weekend. Also, I hate celery too. But I think we’ve already discussed this.
@ordinarybutloud - one more day to the weekend!!! i can make it!
@vexations - because there’s not enough sugar in the baklava?
@SandraErickson - baklava much better than haiku
Love the one about jelly beans! Very clever
This is a cool idea, nice blog!
keep being honest <3
Baklava and haikus all together in one post? You are just too kind.
@ZSA_MD - no. you are.
@openly_honest_166 - openly.
