Making Bagels

A hands-on workshop was such fun
In Montreal today.
We made real bagels, all from scratch 
In a yummy, local way.

Our teacher made us feel at home
(Makes sense - he lives there, too!)
As, patiently, he demonstrated
What we had to do.

Eleven of us washed our hands
And tied our aprons on,
Then measured the ingredients 
And mixed ‘til they were gone.

We kneaded and then shaped the dough 
With Will to supervise,
Then watched them boil and added seeds
And, much to our surprise,

We made delicious bagels
And our group felt really proud!
As a born and bred New Yorker,
I was thrilled and also wowed.

If you visit Montreal, make sure
You find Will’s class and go
For a wonderful experience
That will delight you so!
