I Need a New Recipe

Blueberries, bananas, and walnuts, Five eggs, and a few cups of flour, This dessert is easy to make, It only takes about an hour. A glob of butter and some sour cream, Two cloves of garlic and mistletoe, A handful of spinach and celery, Four snails and a bucket of cookie dough. The oven is heating up now, It is up to six hundred and ten, But I still need three spotted turtles, And the toenails of a speckled wren. Throw in some rice crispy treats, And shiny blue fire crackers with a bang, I am not sure this recipe is quite safe, Even though it was written by Ms. Lange. The oven is done, I shove the mess in, Then I jumped, turned, and gave a great shout, I had not put in the spicy Ketchup, And all the tasty little skittles were out. But I soon pulled my creation right out, I smelled the air and my heart nearly sang, But my family will not take a bite, We'll just have to feed it to Ms. Lange!
