Regarding My Calories

I won't diet. I'm too carefree
Thinking of one makes me cringe
Being hefty will be my destiny
Because on chocolate, I must binge

I'm not interested in calorie counting
It doesn't matter what I weigh
Let the pounds keep on mounting
I'm ready for the lunch buffet

Is it any coincidence that the word 'Diet' begins with the letters D-I-E? I love this and can relate 100%. Well done, Jenna, big congrats for your win ~ John

Life would certainly be dull without chocolate. Made a chocolate souffle last night. It was yummy! Congratulations on your first place win!

Nice penning Jenna, good wording and expression. I'm sure you don't need to lose much, I've lost 8 pounds since lockdown but was needing to. Blessings always,Gordon

Somehow I've managed not to gain during these months, Gordon. It's a fictitious write. Thanks.
