Best Baking Poems
Baking ChocolateFor shame I write again
And indulge your memory
Doting on you baselessly,
As though you’re a man
For shame, I have no remedy
Because as a child, I could never know
And as I am, you couldn't trust my word
That I know you and I know hardship
Because while there...

Memories- Bread Baking DayBread baking memories
up early to start the day
bread to make
Mom and I would start
adding to the bowl, mix and beat
then came the kneading
a rhythm was the key
1-2-3 turn and 1-2-3
as she taught me so many years ago
I can still hear her saying 1-2-3
the ball of...

Nana's Baking PanI look through Nana's broken window so many times
However, today it seems so different
watching the blackbirds pecking at the pears
in the avocados trees
Nana harvested the best ripened avocados pears
The color of dark burgundy, and green
All came from that old worn-out tree;
Every...

Baking Soda and Vinegarelementary science
we watched with wide eyes
baking soda and vinegar
a little red food coloring
emerge from a clay volcano
the foam erupting
moving fast
mixing these catalysts
consequence happened
our lives
like baking soda and vinegar
cause and effect
a mere chemistry experiment
some of us
not well-rounded chemists
make quite a muddle of it
not ever getting...

All are not necessarily fixed by the latest technological revolutions.
To remedy the many vicissitudes that rain down upon myself,

Made simply with just five ingredients.
A thickly buttered slice of crusty bread –
Unique, this sensory experience.
A timeless recipe, easily read –
Strong flour and water, sugar, fat and yeast :
For rich or poor a veritable feast....

Holiday BakingChocolate snowballs, apple crisp,
fudge and brownies too.
It's that time of year again
when only homemade will do.
Apple pecan stuffing,
a treat to go with pork.
The tenderloin so perfect
you can cut it with a fork.
There's a streusel coffee cake
I've been making most of my life.
Once again it's time...

Got up each day and my bed was making
While waiting for what may come this way
Then to the Lord prayers started to say
He helped me with my pie I am baking.
Only Good Things
Each morning will...

Aunt Matties PlaceI love to reminisce about great Aunt Mattie.
Her home perched atop of an old barber shop;
a barber pole below her apartment told my young eyes
that we’d arrived at her place.
Her tiny space, smelled of a million confections and
um, lilacs; house a plethora...
