Loading ...Green Eggs and Ham
I said, “I do not like Green Eggs and ham
I do not like them with the fam
I do not like grilled asparagi
And steak and pizza and apple pie
I do not like them with a fork
I do not like them – you’re a dork.
I do not like Green Eggs and Ham
I do not like them with the fam.”
Keith said “Try them. You will see.
How good aparagi can be
And steak and pizza and apple pie
You will like them – so will I.”
So I tried them Mother’s Day
And added Romaine – ohhhh, say
It was soooo good
I wolfed a bowl
And left the table very full.
I do like the Green Eggs, you see
And all they cook for the fam and me
I do like the heat to stay outdoors
And cooking spills kept off my floors.
I do like Green Egss with the fam
I bet I would like Green Eggs with ham.
Have you ever heard of the Big Green Eggs – gynormous ceramic cookers for smoking, grilling and baking? Me neither – till Keith watched one too many cooking shows. He’s wanted one for years and finally got one yesterday at an EggFestival in Austin. Big Green Eggs are basically a cult following for many, with user boards, cooking competitions, websites, cookbooks and fanatics who travel cross-country from EggsFest to Eggfest.
For Mother’s Day lunch, we had steak, asparagus and Romaine (yes – lettuce), all grilled on the Egg, plus a few more mundane items done inside. Keith brushed the Romaine leaves with olive oil and spices before a quick grilling and omigosh, ithey were so good. Reminded me of the wilted lettuce my mom used to make. For dinner – baked pizza and…..
….baked apple pie (Thanks, Hannah!), served on my new plates from Keith. Because you can never have too many plates. At least that’s what I think. The girls groan at my dish weakness, and try to shoo me past store displays. Keith is more tolerant of my addiction.
Hannah, Lois and Julia all feted me with wrapped gifts. Rachel, however, threw a pack of gum my way, and composed this…ummm… “poem.” The rose is courtesy of Hey Jude, Sarah, Eileen and Loreli, who sent me the most lovely bouquet.
Happy Mother’s Day!

You are also a poet. . . .along with your many other talents! Green Eggs and Ham brings back many good memories of my children’s younger days and all the Dr. Seuss books!
The “green machine” looks like a great investment! My mother also made wilted lettuce and it was so yummy!
