I just did a bad thing. But oh, what delight it did bring! I was in my car going down the street, When I had a craving for something to eat. A Big Mac and fries were calling my name. I abandoned my diet… I had no shame! I don’t regret my guilty pleasure at all. I’ll diet tomorrow after my fast food fall!

Very cool and relatable poem, Brenda. We all have been at that peculiar, decision-making intersection. I made that left turn myself quite a few times. Lol! Fantastically funny this poem be. Love and hugs always.

Funny, but too true, and they just keep getting bigger! Before long it'll be 4 lb. burgers! Love the phrase fast food fall as well. Good one. :O) Roger (Pat)

Thank you Roger. I know I couldn't eat a 4 lb. burger, but I have no problem with a Big Mac. :)

Your poem made me smile Brenda. I can't remember the last time we had a McDonalds (we only have one branch on our Island) ... and now I would love a burger but its a 15 mile drive away!:-) hugs Jan xx

I don't remember the last time I had a Big Mac. It's been awhile. I guess you would have to want it pretty bad to drive 15 miles for it. :)
