The World Is Your Oyster - Collaboration With Darren White

Oysters, huh? With this knife, cut the shell all across Marinade lovingly in soy sauce Bits of garlic and chives for some heat Cook very short, and it's time to eat Slurp down a delicacy delight Not at all slow, for it doesn't bite Wash it away with a tender sip Ambrosia waiting upon my lip I've prepared another one for you Your Muscadet to dive, straight into My kiss, we share the wine and a bite This time, this joint, this oyster delight I am your lemon and you are my lime Perfect the mix, the flavour divine

Yummy!! I LOVE oysters, but I can't cook. So, I'll be right over with Prosecco.

To me that speaks volumes about you Arthur. Maybe if I had eaten the other twelve instead??

They say oysters are an aphrodisiac, I just want to tell you is not true, I ate 24 of them last night, only 12 worked!

Thanks Charma, it all stemmed from a comment I made to Darren that the world is his oyster.
