Linguini

(Try to sing this one to the tune of MARIA from "West Side Story") Linguini - the most luscious cuisine that I’ve ever had. Linguini, linguini, linguini, linguini. Oh what flavorful things in that dish make my taste buds glad. Linguini, linguini, linguini, linguini. Linguini, I’ve tasted a dish called linguini, and now I’ll always wish to have that creamy dish again. Linguini. Style Parmesan has me singing. Add garlic and wine and it’s zinging. I’ll always be craving linguini - the most luscious cuisine I’ve ever had. April 14, 2022 For Angela Tune's To Lighten The Load Poetry Contest

A toothsome musical morsel that deserves a much praise as the delectable ‘Maria! Nice one! Andrea.

I love pasta but must desist. I'll never forget the lovely pasta, linguini and others when I so often visited Rome. Hugs.

This is so much fun and so well-done, Andrea. I wish you had been able to submit it to the Musicals contest. Best of luck in Angela's contest.

Oh my, Rico, I ate a dish on Tuesday evening at Sal's Italian Restaurant here in town, and believe me, it lightened my load considerably!
