*** Notice to the residents of Milton Creek ***

Tom serves as mayor. never complaining, so he gets what he requests 
No blood in his steak, apple pie with sweet cream. Aces cooks that meal
to perfection and I profess it will be made available to all of our guests
but only if you cowboys remove those sharp spurs from your boot heels
You won't find cilantro in my kitchen. That stuff makes Tom start itchin'.
The last thing I wanna do is be the reason our Mayor starts b******!

Sheriff Koplin's visited me and has asked me to put on the new menu
a dish New Orleans is famous for.  He loves beignets and cafe au lait,
but crawfish are mudbugs he won't eat. I'll not serve them at this venue.
But he thinks shrimp are fine, battered and fried, or simmered in etouffee'.
Often, he asks for take-out when he has horse thieves locked up in his jail.
Kyle drools but sheriff reminds him that he should'na bonked a bangtail.

Tania's long been adored for her singing. She has an angel's sweet voice.
She's partial to anything Italian tasting, smothered in parmesan cheese,
but she'll eat whatever I choose to cook, sayin', "Lin, It's your choice."
I'll make Whoopie Pie for her, 'a Northern thing.' Maybe some Chinese.
Tania's never been afraid to help when the bad guys mosey into town,
and quick to stand with everyone, and from fights she won't back down.

Jan would like sticky toffee pudding. Seems she has quite a sweet tooth.
She's the new owner of Manx Saloon and she fits in real good with us.
We welcome her to our town, though her limericks are a titch uncouth.
She's made it clear that she won't put up with those who cause a fuss.
Jan is a lady but won't take kindly with no shady folk lookin' for trouble
I heard tell she wants to hire a bouncer to toss em' out with the rubble.

I haven't overlooked Ranger David's love for anything made with beef.
He's on our southern border, organizing a wall to keep interlopers out.
But he'll be back in Milton Creek soon enough to arrest any sneak thief.
To the brothel 'ladies' he's so fond of... Cheers, girls. Don't you pout.
Be careful down there, David. Word is those hombres are really rotten,
But hurry back home to us... No need to think you'd ever be forgotten.

Deb likes roast beef and veggies, as long as the gravy is deliciously thick.
I mustn't forget the Yorkshire Pudding, but it's something I'll be skipping.
Thinking it was a cream-filled dessert, Deb said she'd offer me a lick,
but passed on wanting a taste when I knew it's made with meat drippings.
At least she didn't ask for vegemite or the feud with Tom would renew.
No vegemite or marmite will be served at Aces, not even in my beef stew.

I found some recipes that Milt left behind in back of a kitchen drawer.
Being from Kentucky, I'll be honoring him with his Bourbon Pecan Pie.
He's terribly missed, and the Creek will never be the same as before...
Before the day Milt went away without the chance to tell us 'goodbye.'
How proud he would be of the town that now proudly bears his name,
founded in days of the wild west and outlaws, it took all of us to tame.

I had to chase down Deputy Terry to find out what food he's fondest of
It took some doin' cuz he's ridin' the range in search of 'The Bad Guys.'
I found him near the mountains and he told me (3 times) that he loves
cheese of any sort. I saw that mischievous twinkle in his smiling eyes
and told him I'd pasture cows and goats for milk for the making of curds.
He grinned at me, blushed and said, "Thank ya. I'll clean up their turds."

As a New Orleans native, I'll be adding a few of my favorite recipes...
Southern fried chicken that's finger licken' and file' gumbo will be nice.
It might be a bit difficult to get fresh seafood to cook up my specialties
and there's no such thing in pioneer days as a freezer filled with ice.
I'll make bread pudding with whiskey sauce purchased from the Manx.
Come to Aces and feast on these fine dishes and I'll offer my thanks.

There's an empty building next to Aces that I'll apply for with a lease
A restaurant, vacated a while back when people got sick from the steaks.
Some townsfolk complained about the rancid taste of too much grease.
Now, they eat at Aces and tell me they enjoy my cookin' and fresh bakes.
I think I'll redecorate the dining room with new tables and nicer chairs.
Milt liked the color blue... I'll get blue drapes for the bedrooms upstairs.
