Notes About The Poem

Peanut Butter Banana Bread

Banana Bread

Time for Dessert - Acrostic Challenge 2 Poetry Contest
Andrea Dietrich

Batter takes the banana pitches,
And swings for some yogurt and butter.
Nuts and raisins are in the field, 
As a strike of milk and sugar shouts.
Next batter up hits the sweet spot,
Anxiously, the team of players rises.

Bake and shake around the bases.
Riches and the pitches of Chiquita’s,
Enjoying the score, slices, and strikes,
As the savory loaf rises in the oven.
Delightment of a win moments away.

Hi Connie, we just made banana ice cream from fresh whipped cream and some ripe banana puree. We'll see how it is when it comes out of the freezer tomorrow. When we try it, and if it's good, we'll start running around and shouting we won!! Hope you are well and smiles, of course!!
