Good to have morning-after greet ya
With gourmet coffee and cold pizza.
If leftover guests are crashed on floor,
Give 'em a slice, and show 'em the door.

Brenda, of the Snowcapped Beauty

She can line a cupboard 
Better than Mother Hubbard, 
And  OH Yes! I say, 
She can cook gourmet --
Offers sister kinship,
the salt and savor,
of anyone's friendship.

Bon appetite!
Cheers to you,
Cheers to me!
These taters
So buttery.
Mmmhm,
Indeed.
Hot to the touch
But this rib rack
So tender,
So I'll cut them some slack.

Mantis's Mealtime Misunderstanding


A mantis so dapper and green,
Ordered takeout in gourmet scene.
He paid with a leaf,
Causing waiter great grief,
"Sir, we only take cash, you've been mean!"

Noodles kept fluffy and warm
   Peas from the can shorn
Water drained from tuna's can

Chewy Food

An apprentice cook called Steph,
Was instructed by the gourmet head chef,
        Always take the glad-wrap off
          Before you cook the stuff,
   But unfortunately she was quite deaf.

Premium Member Succulent Prime-Rib

A succulent prime-rib roast

thickly sliced, blood rare,

a baked potato topped with

sour-cream, chopped chives

and melted butter,
 
a gourmet

Great food is his livelihood,
Of it he writes each day.
Upon his word others depend.

Making much of the display.
Each chef awaits the morning news
To see what he has to say.

Like you're an acquired taste that only I can take

My perfect addiction with no additions made…

Premium Member Razzmatazz

    Season your salads
      Spice them up with reggae
    Same goes for entrées
      Mademoiselle gourmet 

    Leave your food bland 
       It lacks razzmatazz
    If you like meals that sparkle
       Add a few notes of jazz
