Contest Description
Tell me about your planned Summer cookouts. I want you to write 1 epulaeryu, describing something very tasty. It can be the way you season your steak, burgers, appetizers, salads or desserts. Or you can write about your favorite mixed summer beverage. It must relate to your summertime cookout events though. The tastier, the better.
Please be sure to get the correct syllable count, check grammar and spelling, as well. Syllables in lines: 7/5/7/5/5/3/1.
Enjoy yourselves!
